I have lost faith
I have lost faith in my nation
I am American
I live in Colorado
I am a 14 year old heading into my Sophomore year of High school
I am scared of what will happen this month, this year, this decade
I am a part of the LGBT+ community
I was already scared to come out of the closet
Now I am terrified
This nation is meant to be the land of freedom and opportunity
You only have rights if you a straight cis white male
They say no immigrants, no gays, no trans, none different than me
To the people who say this
You are a horrible person
Who needs to get back in your time machine
Because your Nazi comrades miss you
2020 was already hard because of COVID-19
America does not need this homophobic bull****
So dear America and its people I am scared for us
Because people see the tragedy that is George Floyd's death
As a chance to suppress other people
When really it should inspire us to be better as a country
Not divide us in a bad time
People need to expect that very few are like them
Officers need to pick a better side
And stand with the people of this nation
Not with those who try and control and force their will on the people
So dear America I hope you get better soon

women
I am a wonder woman in a world full of batmen, supermen, and men who only give credit to the male hero.
I am tired of my male peers getting the credit on the project I did by myself.
I am tired of getting told “don’t get raped” instead of hearing “don’t rape”
I am tired of being told to leave science and go play with dolls.
Barbies are unfair expectations.
Let women be women not the fake stereotypes men want.
I live in a good neighborhood, I’ve never been raped. I carry pepper spray.
School makes me nervous, I fear every wandering hand and hungry stare.
I have yet to have a teacher do this but older students do.
I don’t know any of them.
When out with my friends, I never leave my friends’ side.
I go to the bathroom with a friend never by my self
I’m 14 I have scared of this since I was 8.
Both are too young.
My friend got raped, and wouldn’t tell anyone because the case wouldn’t go anywhere.
Simply because he had a “good future”
Women are not objects for your pleasure, so take your dick somewhere else.
I am done being used and undermined. Being cheated and lied to.

Time
Once upon a time
there was a few seconds
they turned into to a minute
which than became an hour
they evolved into a day
they grew into a week
then multiplied into months
then devolved into a year.
But no one ever notices when time is passing
they then complain when it is gone.
People need to live in the second
but always waste a lot of minutes
than just watch as the hours fly by.
Poem by Taryn Lindsey

Who we are
Never want
always blunt
forever quiet
ever the riot
forget the chase
remember the race
Things you need to make you bleed
red and blue
bruised and broken
be outspoken
this is what it means to be human.

People ask “why do you have so many barriers?” and than “let me in”
I say “I have barriers because when the wrong kind of people get in, they break my walls and me, and than i spend so long trying to fix myself after I have been broken, by the person I trusted.”
