I don’t know why I feel this way about you. You can be an *** yet you can also care and make me feel alive. Smile, giggle, lose myself in time. You don’t know what to say at the worst times when I need you the most. Yet when I don’t need you at all, you tell me everything I want to hear and more. Do you say it to make me feel good? Do you say it because you’re my best friend? You should know by now I like the attention, love, and care you give me. When you turn your head the other way and ignore me, It pains me. It feels as if you had taken the sharpest knife you could find, smothered it with lies, and stabbed me. All of a sudden you have changed. You go from being so close to me and holding me tight to pushing me away. And with you, I feel as I’m pushing my own self away.

You've Grown Cold
We live in a world of monsters hidden, disgusting things preying upon and on innocence that childhood brings Skulking and sulking the net their odor offensive and vile waiting their chance horrors advance disguising themselves all the while Never a day in the sun sickly and demonic it's need robbing the young things that they've done virtue and purity, bleed

Stay away from the monster Virginia
sometimes when he holds me at night, i pretend your ribs jutting out and poking my back, your hands tracing my neck, kissing my cheek, looking at me “you’re the most beautiful girl in the world” “oh, shut up” laughing, crying and holding and loving my arms shake, i can’t feel his heartbeat 80 to 90 bpm yours was different, i remember your heart, ****** beard i told you how handsome either way, that your eyes sparkled and mine were grey, a tear falls down my cheek, and he asks “are you ok?”

Sometimes
I wanna be baby bear I want my gross porridge to be a reasonable edible temperature I wanna be hot but not a scalding sun And cold but just enough I wanna be baby bear I want my chair to be so comfortable that you break it into a million pieces Because as soon as you perfectly fit It can do nothing else but explode I wanna be baby bear Because then my bed would be so incredible that you're still in it Not too hot Not too cold Not too big Not too small Not too hard Not too soft Or far too much Or never enough If only I could be just right Bc then maybe Just maybe You'd pick me As strange as it sounds, I'd really like to be baby bear That guy's really got a lot goin for him.

Right
I walk the halls and glance at everyone I see, The girls who are hurrying to the bathroom to fix their makeup, And the boys who check them out as they walk by. Is there anyone else here who can't go to the bathroom, because I swear to God just the thought of it gives me a small panic attack. Is there anyone else here who looks down and is disappointed everyday because I am small, chesty and my face is far too round. I never check out the girls, nor do I run to the bathroom to fix myself, I walk and look at how much I wish I was one of the guys, Flat chested, tall, lean and not having to wake up 5 extra minutes to put on a binder. Never hating that their voice along with their round face will have others calling them "She" for their whole life. Never will they come home with aching ribs, and feel the stab of being misgendered. Never will they be told "but you still look like a girl," Even though you are trying so hard that you feel your mind wearing thin. Why can't I just be what they want me to be?
