He asks me to communicate
To use my words and tell him how I feel
But no matter how much I say
Nothing can breach the barrier between my body and mind
Like how a map can never truly represent the world
My words cannot show my insides
Perhaps it's a penance
My name was female
My name was freedom
My name is cursed
The law of nature invalidates me
And no matter which way I plead
His promises of love fall against deaf ears
Lies
I want more
I'm greedy
I hate it here
I'm not grateful
I'm so sad
There's people who would **** to be where I am
I want to be by myself
I watch my body heal and know I was created with a power that thrums beneath this skin
I need to claw away everything from outside
And find the me I lost
At the expense of extending us
Is it so wrong
To ask the imposter I've become to be purged?
I pity none but me
I love all except myself
He asks me, what's wrong?
It's everything with me
