Dear Aphrodite,
I wonder what she dreamt about.
I wonder, if it was of a monster she couldn’t escape.
Or some inevitable truth she couldn’t ignore in the prison of her dreams.
You know how in college being rejected is emotionally easier than being waitlisted. Being waitlisted toys with your heart— you were good, but just not good enough. Wait and see if you finally make the final cut.
I'm just another colored kid living in the suburbs. Picket fences all around, all painted my neighbors color.

not in any way, shape, or form.

you dont have a "set in stone" way of thinking.
You think of evrything, possibly, too often.

A 17 year old child applying for college,
built for success, wisdom, and knowledge.
A plethora of information has been deposited into him,
But due to his black skin many have trained him on a whim.
