Not able to speak always thinking Mind racing causing a stutter Feeling frustrated didn't know How or why this was happening Compared to others never the same Told how to act another scolding A child with a huge sensitive heart Use to be the funny one wearing a smile Everyone made it personal Jokes that were made to laugh Then the insults came causing pain Had to have thick skin because of family Couldn't show feelings or emotions Seen as weak for caring about others Transitions are hard from being one way Then learning you don't have to do it anymore Growing up being an individual from the rest Not empowering things that are weak Being strong to be set free took control Learned to say no not a yes man Not what others said or those made up lies Away from dead weight living a life flying From those who are not worthy of your time
