5.0

this is super wonderful!!
some of my fave poems/lines:
"i prayed to Allah
to make me special.
I wanted superpowers
telekinesis.
God gave me a hormonal imbalance"

"there us strength
in my anger.
there is strength
in my tears.
there is strength
in all that i am."

"i am better
than his words.
i am stronger
than his fists."

"good friends can
make life feel like home."
:) this is really affirming, beautiful, vulnerable and strong collection of poetry!!
