I'm not good at being a human Though to be fair, no one ever taught me how I had to pick up the pieces and hints that were dropped Whenever I ******* up Or wasn't successful enough When I laughed instead of crying Or made a joke that didn't land When I couldn't articulate my truth Or said something in the wrong tone When I stayed quiet for too long Or said something they didn't want to hear When I did... Anything really Especially when I did nothing at all But at least I make good effort Though it's never gonna be enough Because I know deep down I'll never be enough I was born to be a critter I was shaped to be a man I am forced to be a human I don't know what I am at this point But I **** at being a human Though I shall find a way To find myself, what I am Somehow
