I am that girl who, loves the smell of gasoline, hate hypocrites, and sometimes talk to much Even though I think I'm not talking enough but then someone tells me to slow down or shut up and now I just realized I'm talking to much. I am that girl who, is constantly looking over my shoulder looking for those who attack me on the daily. I sit in my closet and cry until I feel my body falling to pieces, wretched from my lips are the cries of despair and pain that I hold back. However I am not this girl: The girl who is okay with the bullying, The girl who is okay with the abuse, The girl who is okay with the ****, The girl who is okay with not being allowed to feel comfortable in her own sexuality, The girl who okay with not having a voice. I am not that girl. Never was, never will be, I am not okay with these things. Please do not treat me with kid gloves for yes I am as fragile as a china doll and if you drop me I might break but I will look pretty and smile through the tears. Sometimes I feel like I haven't Breathed. Like its been a decade since I last went to sleep. So no I'm not all smiles, I'm not straight, and I'm definitely not okay but that is me. That's How I complicatedly describe me. And maybe its the end of me. The me behind the mask, behind the band-aids, holding together the pieces.
this isn't so much a poem but more of a letter to my future self from. one day i'll need to be reminded of who I am and this is what I would want to remember
