Cheyenne Callan Poem
I image death it feels more like a memory, just like something I’ve already seen. When I see it do I try to run, or should I just let it be. What if it gets me?
I don’t think I’ll live past 30. Where I come from most don’t even get that many. Knowing that should I just live carefree? I’m scared I’ll die a nobody. I know that I’ll never be the best person I could be. Most of my family continue to disagree.
Every burden, every disadvantage, I have learned to manage. Yeah I know I’m damaged. I have this fear that I may just vanish. Some say that my thoughts are outlandish.
I’ve been told I got a lot of brains but no polish, but I continue to amaze and astonish- still in the work.

Cheyenne Callan Poem
Before I die,
I wish to see a world,
Where no one has to fight to be equal,
Where someone’s gender and colour doesn’t matter,
Where you can love who ever you want.
I wish for everyone to be accepted,
Where you can be who you want to be,
Where people are not so self centred,
Where people care and put others before themselves.
I wish for a world where I can love who I want,
Where people don’t have dont gave to be scared
Of being what they want to be.
I wish to see a world with less hate and more love,
More acceptance,
Less war,
More people helping each other,
Less begging,
And more charity.
Before I die I wish to see a world with more love,
Where you can be who or what you want,
Where your gender or race doesn’t matter,
Where men don’t control women’s bodies,
Where racial discrimination doesn’t exist,
Where people care about each other,
Where people help each other,
Where there is no war,
Where there is finally peace.

Cheyenne Callan Poem
The girl thought she had it beat,
But then she couldn’t stand to eat,
Not even a single piece of meat.
The girl started to disappear,
She begged for help but no one could hear.
She didn’t want to be here,
All she was, was a peer.
The girl was so obsessed with her weight,
She began monitoring what she ate.
Soon she began to lose pounds date by date.
When she looked into mirrors, all she felt was hate.
The girl slowly became bones,
People around her would say it was for attention or it was just hormones.
The girl just put in her headphones
And drowned out the world’s groans.
