She
SheI wake up in my queen bed that i have all to myselfShe wakes up on a twin sized cot with a brother on each sideI trudge to the kitchen already complaining about the assortment of cereals my mother picked for the weekShe wonders if she’ll eat todayI rant about my hatred of school and all the work and tests and projectsShe wishes she could get an educationI go out to eat with my friends every wednesday afternoonShe buried her best friend just two days agoI dread the early sunday mornings of going to hour long services at churchShe hopes that one day she will have this so called “religious freedom”- A concept foreign to her peopleI am afraid of the hail storms in the forecast this time of yearShe remains calm and collected as the bomb sirens go off for the 5th time this week I am aware of current events, spreading the word, telling people it’s wrong and unfairShe sees the way I live as a dream,wishes one day she could live “there” I live in my own worldShe lives in hersCrazy to thinkWe are from the same earthLet alone,from the same universe
