It's been a while

Hey there empty space and invisible followers!!! It's been a while since I posted anything on here. There are a few reasons, I had a whirlwind summer, school just started up, and I didn't really try to write anything over summer (which I guess is stupid since there was so much inspiration around me.) But, I realized that writing on the blog was something I sort of missed, even if was just the equivalent of an online diary. Now the reason I had this marvelous epiphany was because on Wednesday during lunch I went to S.W.O.R.D. club, which is the poetry club at my school. Well, without further ado here is the poem I wrote a yesterday in a fit of inspiration.


there once was a chance I didnt take/
I could’ve said something but, maybe they might make/
fun, of the girl that speaks up/
sometimes you must say that enough is enough
when equality is unequal/
and when all the people/
are not what they say because/
you know what they say/
that actions speak louder than words/
you don’t have to speak in order to be heard/
because you have an active voice/
in order to make change and in order to make choice/
and you can say/
put your words away/
because when words are a weapon sheath them/
and when all are our neighbors greet them/
not with hatred and judgement/
but with acceptance and love that/
might, create love and destroy hatred
