A Good Little Girls Zine

Standing in my truth I spit
tired laughter
exhausts my mind
loud yells, deafening chatter
disconnection
broken by tiny, teeny
moments
moments of gratitude, love, kindness
I want it to be enough
I beg it to be enough
I try to grab it, hold it,
feel it, keep it safe
Yet, I'm left
wanting
wanting to feel 
a true honest bond!
