I like both boys and girls They both are stunning to me The way their hair blows in the wind The way they laugh The way they dress I want to be just like them I want to love them both The girls seem to be okay with that But the boys don’t like the way I barely shave my legs The boys don’t like the jorts I wear on a hot sunny day The boys somewhat like my jokes Only a few of them do though And I wonder why a girl can think I’m so stunning but a boy can just throw me out Maybe I look to much like their friends I love the way I am though I know there are some boys my age that would like me But I just wonder why I’m so odd to them Maybe dating me makes them feel gay Dating girls makes me feel straight Maybe I’m to boyish I like boys though

Gentlewoman
I get this tingle up my arms Whenever I hear a good voice Its so satisfying Whenever a trumpet snarls in my ear Completes a arrangement When me and my partner in crime matched tones for the first time I saw music Before when I heard my father singing back when I was a little girl I discovered music When I joined choir I wasn't alone I heard so many voices And when I turned 14 I learned how to learn And now I learn music I'll get those chills up my back Whenever I match that pitch And whenever the people I love make their own music And they thrive It sounds so good Sounds like love Music theory was never just written down Its in our bodies We all have a music spark For the language humans speak isn't assigned color or ethnicity Its in the vibrations of our reeds Our lips Our vocal strings Our ears will gather data of the first love we all hear Music of crys in a hospital And a death rattle on a death bed Depends on how you want to see it Or play it Or read it Just don't squeak it

Chills
I think of a new idea and I jot it I’ll type it and spell it Wrong In my right mind It will be perfect My perfect mind will never be enough for the world But the lesser will hear me And I will make us equal I can’t rise long But I still can I can dance and sing I can write I can’t stay the same But I’ll say your name Even after years of hurt I’ll say you did something good in my life You will show up in poems You will show up in dreams And we will be equal Because you can’t write like me People from the streets can feel more than me Their scars speak more then that $ And when they die and are in a grave They will have a story You will have a lesson

I'll write that down
Limerence is an odd thing. I went over to your house again. The same situation, all over again. Except this time it was slightly different. I had more control and felt euphoric. Now I feel insane when I’m without you. When you’re gone, who will I talk to? I want to be so close to you that I can’t get any closer. I guess I was when we were together. With you, I feel happier than ever. Are we meant to be together? I think it’s best if we stay apart, But oh how it hurts my heart. I don’t wanna leave your side. Maybe I am broken inside. I hope, I ache, I reach for love but you can’t see my true face. You only see my silhouette You can see me but you can’t see who I am. You’ve crossed every border of my skin, But never asked who lives within. When I think of you my palms get clammy and my stomach turns. This doesn’t feel like love should. This is just wrong. When I think about you I get anxious. So do I really like everything about you? And do you like everything about me? Or do you just make me feel loved? And do I just satisfy you? Do I like you? Or do you solve my Limerence?

Limerence
If I can’t reach the top of the shelf then I’ll find a book better for my height And I’ll wait until I’m ready to grow up up up If I need a water break while I’m on the feild then I’ll ask for my break But until then I’ll keep growing And even after the fact I’ll go back and work harder And stronger And better Each key i break on my saxophone can always be fixed And if it’s really that bad I’ll get myself I new one Because one way or another I will play And I will sing through that bell I will scream I will sing with my people And I’ll harmonize with my best friends by my side Our opinions may clash and clank But after these hardships I bet we will be in sync But we have our own warmups to do And even if I feel so low and gloomy I can still look for the good in my days Like how I’m slowly getting the courage to cross the street alone Because one day I want to lead my people My team My section My choir My littlest But I’m to weak So I will pick myself up and lead myself first Even if I’m holding back the rising tide in my head But like I said if I need a water break I’ll get it Because when I am ready I will grow And reach that book

If I can't reach
The brass reflects in the beams All these pretty keys have a meaning A purpose I wish I had a range like a saxophone No squeaks no mistakes I can never seem to properly replace my own reed I slur my words and phrases Not like a written slur I sound uneven and janky Sax or not I can't seem to grasp my breath Or the courage I felt like ever since I lost something in me My notes haven't sounded good enough There is something going on with my saxophone I'll hug it tight And ill tell her she's perfect no matter the flaws

Alto
Why should my noise be simpler than yours Why do people take the time to try to understand me through squeaks When you play perfect tempo Why is my own self somehow worth more when you can read smoother than me Why do people cover their ears all because your louder truths Why do people listen to my quiet wrongs Why do we work in ways that are different Why do I choke on my reed from that bitter sweet Why can you just simply attach your mouthpiece Why do I have more keys Why do you have more vibrations And why does that matter when we both play out of a bell
