So Overdone Poem by Marijke McKinney

Staring at the world
I finally see
how everything was
So overdone

This is it
Without all the fancies
And I’m ok
This is who I am

I’m not one
To make the world spin
Merely one of the thousands
Allowing it to stand

Send me below the grass
Watch me grow to the skies
I'm only becoming something better
A spectacle of earth in someone’s eye

There was nothing ever to be sad about
And look at me
I’m already crying
I worry myself out

Please
Set me at ease
A simple request
To the dweller inside of me

In the meadows I grow alone
Nothings ever gone
This world that I once was in
was so overdone
