In school I was told that I was small,
I was portrayed as a gold fish who lived in a small tank,
Like a small fish who was scared to jump to a larger one,
They failed to notice, fish can’t breath while they jump.

In school I was told that I was lazy,
I was displayed as if I were taking the easier path,
They failed to notice I was an A straight student,
Only I couldn’t be happy in such a squared larger tank.

Two years have passed and I am not lazy, nor small,
The fish has grown, and it is indeed gold,
But it doesn’t jump, it swims and flies,
They failed to notice, we are not made out of a mould.

Time is flying,

And I feel happier

But sadder

Most nights I spend them crying.



You make me feel safe

But what scares me the most

Is to stop feeling this way

Loss makes me ache.



I thought they were lies

A person couldn't make you feel whole

But you light up my darkness

And warmth has no price.




I know I seem cold

I'm sorry i'm not used

To be held so tightly

To  trust what's out of my control.
