A Little Lost Girl Poem by Angel Gibbs

Flipping through the pages of my inner most thoughts
Wishing my dreams would be reality
And feeling defeated when they are not.
So much time passes by
Without the blink of an eye
Feeling the pressure of life
With so much strife
It takes me up, it takes me down
I keep going in circles like a merry-go-round,
Just to keep my head on straight
This turbulence takes the cake.
I'll never have the cap fully tight
It'll always fly off even with the smallest strike.
Landing in an unknown place
With new people, a different culture and taste
I'll start over once more but even in due time,
I'll still be the same me on the inside,
A lost little girl confused and cut up by the world.
