Undecided

Born in 2004

I was never sure who I was before

I'm still not, the internet makes sure

Social media is way too much most days

I think it's better to communicate

with someone face to face

Now I use a pandemic as an excuse

hiding my awkward truths

I spend all my days looking at people

People in love and people who need it

It's none of my business though

What someone else does or doesn't have

I myself have no clue who I am or what I want

Love is secondary for an immigrant

Money is money, and I'm only sixteen

The first step to male beauty is to be six feet tall

I'll be six feet deep before those genetics can be seamed

Then there are decisions

Doctor or engineer

Replacing an M with a D would bring my mother to tears

That's all I have to say about the topic

I don't offer much if you can't tell

Grades are satisfactory

My sister says I'm as useful as I was when I was six

But I'll survive, seeing as I was given the long stick

I appreciate what God has given me

Contrary to parental beliefs

I value God, and my beliefs are personal unlike some

I hate this generation's platform

Self-included

Keep your opinion for yourself

Nobody asked, doesn't mean you go first

I think if we all spoke a little less

The world would be much better off

The world would be much better off with a lot of things, to be honest

I don't plan to serve this planet and improve the world around me though

I'll do what's asked and I'll do what's needed

I think some people should go further

But that's not me, nor do I want it to be

Again, I know literally nothing

I couldn't tell you, my favorite singer

The answer changes depending on who asks

I change myself for each person

That's what teenagers are expected to do I guess

Be annoyingly impressionable

We're also incredibly impatient

I get frustrated if someone doesn't text me back in two minutes

I hope that changes soon

Or that people reply faster when they're older

I hope I get to a point where I don't feel the need to change

I want to be comfortable with myself

That's the first step to growing up in my opinion
