Swallow Me

by Amber B

I want the world
to swallow me whole

To spit me out
with the knowledge
of great scholars
and the peace
of pure infants

I want the world
to embrace me whole
now for what it wants me
to be
but for who I am
who I strive to be
with my goals
and no one else's

I wish the world
to make me whole
