I'm just a female
who has empathy
a really nice
female friend
who has feelings
that you lack
you get scared,
at the thought
that I cry
you distanced yourself
from me
because I feel emotion.
intense
feelings
Oh, I'm just a female
who has empathy
who's there
if you need a hug
or there to understand
but am I just a female to you?
am I nothing more?
I was just a female.
that's all I ever was.

"Female" is about how he only saw me as a female and not as a girl or a woman. He couldn't understand why I was run with emotion. While I was looking back into our messages to timeline, it became very clear that he never actually liked me or thought of me as a person. "I thought I could talk to a female because they are so empathetic"
This is from my project, "Rose Tinted," a collection of poems, drawings, and stories of reflection. The art can be found on my instagram in the upcoming months.
