:??
The oldest child.
Or the second parent.
The one that everyone relies on, the one who's need to be the model for the youngest siblings.
Who have dreams but soon turned into nightmares. Childhood? No, the oldest child doesn’t really have one, taking care or the youngest siblings were childhood for them.
Is the one who get blamed one for mistakes that youngest siblings have did, clean the mes from other, doesn't earn the respect they truly deserve.
Need to be successful to make their parents proud, carrying the weight of endless expectations on their shoulders, put on fake smiles too make everyone happy but who makes the oldest child happy?
They live were already written before they even existed and forced to grow with it.
Never heard the words" I am so proud of you" buts words that they were used to hear as"Why couldn't you be more like you cousin/friend)
They try their best, but somehow their best is never enough.
But you may ask" How do you know if all of that is true?"
..well I am an oldest child too, sad right..?

Aissi Balde Poem
A woman.
Most people see her as something to control,
A toy, a servant, a role to play.
If she is blonde, she is called "dumb."
If she is Black, she is called "slave."
If she speaks up, she is "too loud."
If she is silent, she is "too weak."
Her opinions are dismissed,
Her clothes are judged,
Too short, too long, too revealing, too modest.
Nothing is ever right.
She is told to be careful,
To watch her back,
To never walk alone at night,
To be always aware.
They say, "Protect your daughters,"
But never, "Teach your sons."
Still have to fight for their freedom, right,one live.
But you may ask "How can you be so sure that's true?"
"Because I am a woman too."
And sadly, we still see it everywhere—
Women still fighting to be treated right.

Aissi Balde Poem
Long ago, there were two guardians, a moon guardian and a sun guardian.
One day, they met at a changing post and instantly fell in love.
Each time they met, they spoke, laughed, and shared secrets under the shifting skies.
Their love grew stronger, and they longed to be together always,
To share each other's joy, pain, and happiness.
Defying the ancient rules, they crossed the forbidden wall,
Causing an eclipse—the strongest and longest one ever seen.
But in their union, tragedy struck:
One guardian lost the sight in an eye, blinded by too much light.
From that day, the Sun’s guardian decreed
That they could never meet again.
With heavy hearts, the Moon’s guardian agreed
You may ask, "But what happened with the two guardians?"
... well, they had to say goodbye.

Aissi Balde Poem
One night, a couple was fighting, their voices echoing through the room.
In a moment of anger, the boy shouted, "I HATE YOU!". The girl stopped, her face pale, and suddenly fainted.Terrified, the boy carried her to the hospital. Their fight had been about her constant late arrivals home, which had filled him with suspicion.
At the hospital, the doctors delivered the devastating truth: "Your wife has a heart condition and only a week to live, we couldn’t find a donor... we’re so sorry. .When they returned home, the husband devoted himself to caring for her. Each moment was filled with tenderness and love.
A week passed, and the girl woke up, searching for her husband. The doctor said softly, "He gave you his heart... and this letter."With trembling hands, she opened the letter, tears streaming down her face.
"I know I wasn’t the best husband, but I wanted you to remember me as your loving one. Please, take care of my heart as you always did."
You may ask, "But why did he do this?"
... Well, he died for her because he loved her,
and she will live for him because she still loves him...
