Please tell me why I only Seem to be able to write poetry When I'm drunk or half asleep Maybe it's because I loose my inhibitions And no longer care what people think? But that shouldn't matter anyway. And honestly? I DON'T care. I'm good enough on my own By my own I'm worth enough For myself to be myself If that makes any sense. I don't need anyone to Tell me that I'm good enough I know I am. It's not my fault that some don't see it. Come on, Spread a little bit of self love am I right? I know when I say my name people Don't blink so Why should it be any different when I tell you My pronouns. I'm not an animal in a cage In a zoo, I'm **** good enough as me And I don't REALLY need your approval Honestly you're lucky you even got my Name Because most times I forget to introduce myself so Why should the rest of me shock you anymore Than my name does?
