Time has shown me that my existence doesn’t matter
That I am nothing but a singular pepper speck in a sea of salt
That I am meaningless, worthless, and often irrational
That I am just an angry Black girl filled with emotions that I’m not allowed to have
That maybe, just maybe, life would be better without me in it
That my life holds no significance and holds no weight here on this earth
So now I just wait
Waiting for the time when this will be over
Praying for the time where I can finally rest
