NEED You know what I hate? The fact that every girl should be a feminist. Not because it's what I want, or you want, or they want. It's because it's what I NEED, and what you NEED, and what they NEED.

Dear Mom Dear Mom, I told you I was depressed. I told you I needed help. I told you, but then you said it was nonsense. You told me I had the whole world going for me. That I was just grumpy. But the more you said those things, the more I started to think. I thought that I wasn't needed, that no one understood. And the more I thought, the more I believed it. But after you found me on that bridge, when we were driving home. You told me that I never talked to you, that I should have told you what I was feeling. You said you could've helped. But you don't understand. It's you that never talks to me, that doesn't listen to what I say. I told you, Mom. I told you. And never did you help me.

This is to all you environmentalists Who have the best intentions You want to save the world To save everything on it And I appreciate you, don't get me wrong You guys that recycle Take short showers Don't drive much Fight overfishing But you're going about it all wrong You guys that take short showers are doing it all in vain Did you know that there are 660 gallons of water in one hamburger? Why? The cow it comes from was fed grains that used tons of water For those of you that fight for the ocean You never drop your trash on the beach Pick up all the litter near it You, too, are going about it all wrong Because think about those farms that hold tons of cows Where do the cow patties go? Straight into the ocean So if you really want to help Lay off the hamburgers

Purpose Everyone wants to know their purpose in #life If they'll change the world... Save it... Or destroy it. But one person Can't save the world Or destroy it But they can help Your purpose may be to make someone smile So they'll say something to their friend Which will make their friend go to a place Where she meets a guy Who becomes her boyfriend And then rejects her And then she is moody And makes someone mad Which makes that person a bit moody Which makes another person comfort them And that grows their bond Which makes them go somewhere together Which inspires a person To start a compost pile Which makes a rabbit investigate it And the rabbit distracts a dog Which distracts its owner And so on It's that simple Don't seek your purpose Just be yourself And you'll fulfill it Maybe my purpose Is to write this So you can see it. That could be all I have to do. So don't be someone you're not Just be yourself And things will happen Just like they're supposed to

Why I Cry If I asked you why I cry Would you tell me because I'm weak? Would you say I was broken And lost If you told me that I would tell you That it's quite the opposite. I cry Because I've been strong For too long
