i am 14.
i have ocean blue eyes with golden rings.
i stare at the ground.
i have freckles on my nose that spread to my cheeks when the sun kisses them.
i wear pressed powder.
i have mousy brown hair that is cut at my shoulders.
i put yellow streaks through it.
i have a crooked smile and perfect teeth.
i sit alone.
i am 5 feet of insecurities.
i learn to dance in my room.
i listen to the radio.
i am friends with book characters.
i dream in the pages.
i make jokes so you’ll laugh at them.
i find my strength.
i write words so you’ll be satisfied with knowing me.
i find your weakness.
i hide inside baggy jeans and blue sweaters.
i live in a purple world.
