Nineteen Poem by Rebekah Wooten

Nineteen

Rating: 4.8


Nineteen

Seemly unseen

Is there invisibility in my genes?

Who am today

Is not who I may be tomorrow

Still I lie wide awake

Trying not to fall asleep

Laughing suddenly

I cannot control the speed

of the earth's turn

I cannot stop the world from burning

I am not needed

I roll over

A sense of freedom fills me, blissfully

I'm only nineteen

And as of now

That's all I aspire to be
