simply,
i miss you
but it's so much more complicated than that
take away the pain before i close my eyes and tape them shut

life shot me into a direction i wasn't expecting
i grew up wearing dresses, and bows in my hair
but never felt at home in my own skin
i got older, and started hanging out with the boys in my neighborhood
and i realized i was much more like them than my sisters
i didn't feel "pretty"
i felt tough
and rough
and like i just wanted to be somebody else
high school hit, and by this time
i was no longer Heather
i was Trent
and for the first time in my life
i felt like i was me
my mom cried so much
saying "i'm going to miss my little girl so much, but now i finally have a son. i love you"
my dad, on the other hand, he took it differently
he said if i was a boy then that meant he could kick my *** when i had done something wrong
and he did
i never felt like he loved me
even when i was his little girl
i wasn't pretty like my sisters
i was never meant to be that girl i grew up being
nowadays i just can't keep a woman
they say the *** isn't important, but i know it is
and i'm starting to wonder
if i should just be on my own

popularity never mattered much to me
i really just wanted to get through the days unseen
and even now, i feel like i'm constantly hiding
i try not to look in the mirror
so even i won't know i'm there
the only person i ever wanted to see me left and broke me
she took every part of me that mattered and left it shattered
and i don't really care if anyone else ever looks at me again

emptiness is the only thing I have left
and sometimes it's hard to know you're even alive when you have nothing
a waste of words
resides inside this
rotting carcass
nothing is not enough to live for

the bottle had become
my comfort
and I allowed myself
to drown
i tried to swim
back up
but your hate
kept pulling
me down

if I hadn't been such a coward
and I'd let my feelings show
maybe then she would remember me
if I hadn't bitten off more than I could chew
maybe I wouldn't have choked
and maybe
just maybe
then she would remember me
if I hadn't burned it to the ground
using her beauty as the flame
and my addictions the gasoline
maybe then she would remember me
fondly

who is stellar notions?
if only I knew
full of rapid emotions
just as angry as you
riding black oceans
with no land in view
I'll just keep my devotions
as a secret
or two

I've been gone for so long
I can't remember who I was
before I turned to this
