I've been sad for days

by Yakari Gabriel   Jun 12, 2016


I am worn out,
look bad at 22
will probably look
worse at 25.
There is no aging
gracefully in a life
full of struggle
look at me,
who promised I would be great
look at me,
who promised I would not shrink
myself for no one..
here I am,
old at a young age
ugly
voiceless
hopeless

    This is so personal (I feel) we all feel old before our time because of stresses. I often get told I look mid 30s and I'm only 27.

    Sorry I've become vague.
    Take care, Em
