how can I help you understand
it's what the bag represents
this day devoid of any meaning
am I not allowed
to feel something
anything
at all

how can I make you understand
it doesn't matter live or die
joy can be found in simple things
am I not allowed
to pleasure
myself
at all

how I wish you could understand
a person without a future
has no use for more restrictions
am I not allowed
the freedom
to decide
at all

how you will never understand
this world we both inhabit
you have answers to my questions
am I not allowed
to disagree
not true
at all
