Longing By: Rachelle Estinvil

Rachelle Estinvil, Fall Editor

i look at her and scoff

what kind of parents did she have to make her go off?

maybe she didn’t have overbearing parents

ones that made her almost jump off a terrace

 

red dyed hair

looking as if she had no cares

maybe that could be me

playing around wild and free

 

 

i scrolled through my phone

regretting running away from home

looking at the girl on my right

my lip started to curl with spite

 

hijab red and perfect

probably never had to face neglect

maybe i could be her

head high and 100% sure
