Just Another Volunteer Poem by Dyhanara Rios

Hear me out; stare me down.
I want you to see how I feel
Somehow.
I love when reality is so surreal.

Let me make this clear:
I’m not just another volunteer.

I never stop wondering
Just what you think of me.

You will see the truth now
More than ever, dear;
At first, I was just another volunteer,
But, no matter how little or much
I want, I’m a servant, and as such,
I want to be so much more, my dear.
I want to be the top volunteer!
I want to be the perfect soul
That I want you to see.
But, all I really want is to know
What you think of me.
I’m just another shattering soul
Who wants to find her way back home.
