My words may be repetitive,
but at least my meaning
is stronger than your
immature knowledge of
what my life is built upon.
Step into my shoes,
look through my tired eyes,
and collect the moments
of my rushed adolescence
and try to make sense
of what it is that has
made me use poetry as
a way to cope.
I don’t have to explain
myself to you. Because
even if you are listening
to my voice, or reading
my echoing words,
we both know that you
will never be able
to fully understand.
