A bad contestant
I don’t use special numbers
Tried it for a month
Didn’t win a single dime
Really not worth the effort

Things I’m most proud of
Times I stood up to bullies
Times I had courage
When I spoke up for others
Sick of all the injustice

My first fan-girl crush
A singer and a dancer
Poor little rich boy
But he could walk on the moon
Misery and drugs killed him

I just wear earrings
Have no desire for tats
Needles make me weak
I tried a double piercing
I changed my mind, just like that

The smile is a lie
The moment is imperfect
A tortured young girl
Escaping with my bestie
Catch the moment as it fades
