Analysis of 10 things i wish i could change (more of a list than a poem)
so many things
i wish i could change.
but it's easy to say
what the top ten are-
1. I wish my best was enough for my parents instead of them pushing me to do "better".
2. that life was as easy as it looks.
3. that i wasn't such a freak
4. that i wasn't afraid to express myself.
5. that school reflected the amendments (it really doesn't. what happened to our freedom of speech?!? What about our rights?!?!)
6. that pictures always come out exactly right.
7. i wish i wasn't so invisible!
8. that my thoughts on political matters would be heard.
9. that i would relax rather than worrying and freaking out and caring what others think.
10. that gym and math wasn't necessary.
:) PLZ???!!!?!?!?!?! {insert innocent smile and puppy dog eyes}
