Oh to be a kid again

Oh to be a kid again

when you could color your house pink

and it didn't matter if your rainbow was 

out of order.

Oh to be a kid again

When you could run through sprinklers

and throw Pokemon down and they thought it was cute.

But five years later and throwing down Pokemon

is considered immature and nerdy.

SCHOOL KILLS CREATIVITY

It started in third grade when my teacher said:

"Why don't you try to color inside the lines

don't you think that would be prettier?"

That's when I started thinking that it was better to

color inside the lines, 

and that it was better to be just like 

everyone else

man was i wrong..

They ask me what my favorite color is
and I reply with
black.

They continue to tell me that
black is a shade not a color.

Just another person telling me that black
cannot be my favorite color,
for it simply is not a color.

Invalidated again
just for being myself.
