I don't know, I just love my dad

Supportive, even when I'm a brat

Selfless, he puts everyone before himself

Hard-working, even when everything he does benefits others 

Friendly, he gives up anything to show he cares

Tough, even when everything is against him

Heroic, he will do anything for his family 

Absolutely hilarious

Extremely patient

The one I can count on, the one I'd die for, & I know he'd die for me

Football games & porch talks

I just wanted to tell you about my dad 

My hero, my best friend♡

Hats ♔ ♕ ♚ ♛

I'd rather keep my hat on 

'cause when I take it off,

I get hurt, or it's a false alarm

Both leave me wishing I never took it off

But hats can be strange, pɹᴉǝʍ, cool, crazy 

& each one of them is different in their own way, good & bad

I guess I look at them like I look at people

Are you a funny hat? 

Or a football helmet? 

Are you a simple cap, 

or are you a sombrero?

In ways it defines you, it's a part of your identity.

Whatever kind of hat you may be, 

show it off and be proud of it, 

sometimes you might have to hide behind it

Sometimes, it's all you have

It's raining

It's raining,

 not from the sky, from my eyes

& it pours just about everyday. 

Putting up a front is my specialty

it has to be here, 

it's not easy, people are out to get you. 

Let me tell you, it's senior year, & it's not getting better.

Girls are mean, boys are ruthless,

friends leave & you just feel worthless.

But don't let them see it.

Insecurities just eat away, 

mistakes I regret are there every day.

They judge constantly, 

I know it.

& honestly it'd be nice to know what they were saying.

My problems don't compare,

others have it much worse,

I just don't feel worthy to be sad.

So,

it will continue to rain,

but, people will only see me happy, 

that's all I want them to see.

Who wants to be around someone sad anyway?
