Adolescent

chana

It took a lot to heal 

A lot to feel

A hand to hold 

A disguise to mold 

Big smile to fool

The teachers at school 

Hands on my chest 

Shirt is hanging from my breasts 

Reputation still intact

“Biggest slut “

Better hit that 

Mom is asking

Friend Is waiting 

“ everything is fine “

Innocence is fading 

Ease the pain slowly 

a shot of novacane before me 

“ stay for a while “

Learn to live in denial 

Vision impaired 

Glossy eyes & messy hair 

Hands on my thigh 

Lift my head to the light 

This is me 

The one I’ll be 

Misjudged and alone 

No future I’ll meet
