“It’s so funny when I was 12, I was at Immaculate Heart [a school in Los Angeles], and one of the assignments was to write a poem about your life. And I remember this poem to this day.”
She then read out her poem: “Two houses, two homes, two kitchens, two phones, two couches where I lay, two places that I stay. Moving, moving here and there, from Monday to Friday I’m everywhere.
“Don’t get me wrong, it’s not that bad, but oftentimes it makes me sad. I want to live that nuclear life, with a happy dad and his loving wife.
“A picket fence, a shaggy dog, a fireplace with a burning log, but it’s not real, it’s just a dream, I cannot cry or even scream. So here I sit with cat number three, Life would be easy if there were two of me.”
The video went viral on TikTok, where it was watched 7,1 million times and liked by 1,3 million people.
