it's hard enough for me to conjure up my strength in the form of words i shouldn't have to shout at the top of my lungs just to be heard sometimes i'm the boy who cried wolf and others i'm a canary in a coal mine it's too hard in this country to try and fight for my rights i don't care if they take my life i will let everyone else fly
closets are for clothes, not for fear lockers are for books, not my peers jail is for rapists and the streets are for protests not vice versa
is this too hard to understand? are you too busy saying "war" instead of stealing land? are you too involved in bigotry and pro-life saying a marriage should be a man and his wife?
newsflash, *******, this isn't 1890 open up your mind to something less blinding women aren't objects and their insides aren't purses not meant to hide all their tampons and zip up their curses
besides, zipped lips can't quell a revolution we're fine without your exclusion because of your conclusion that we don't matter.
my throat hurts from screaming my name people try so hard to bring me pain honestly, i don't know how i stay sane i have to yell in their faces to gain some respect their dissection of my being makes me a monster giving me feelings i try not to foster and i want to hurt them back.
i want to destroy them for stealing my confidence for planting fear in the soil of my soul for declaring war on what they find obscure
it's easy to realize that their words are not an army and their fists are not drones but when their weapons strike and their bullets pierce any shade of skin screams fill the air and they grin our society is the Lord of the Flies and we are the pigs.
