Like me when I am the 
Deep mud and the stench of the melting snow
When I am the screeching of boots on the pavement
And the trash bags stacked in the summer heat.
 
Me, you, us
It goes beyond,
 
I am yelling from the rooftop.
Like Me
She stands with me,
Like me
On my own two feet
Like Me
I am with her on the rooftop
Like Us
Yelling to be heard.
Yelling to exist.
Yelling for you to Like me.
 
 
She’s so much older than she looks,
And she has taken me in
Like me Like me Like me
I am her sister and her cat
Her tiny daughter, shielded.
I am the tree she hung her swing on
The beam she hung herself from.
 
Me, you, us
It goes beyond,
