For You
Batman Nov 2015
For those who listen
To those who believe it won’t matter
For those who think that if you aren’t heard the first time
It’s not worth it

That’s why I’m here
To tell you know that you are amazing
That it does matter
That you are always heard
That you are unique
That you deserve the second chance

And above all

You are valued
You are loved
You matter
You have a place

You shouldn’t have to harm yourself
To feel better
To hide from insecurities
Because those differences you call
Imperfections
Are what make you
Individual
Perfect
You

So this
Is for you

I
Batman Nov 2015
I
I floated and drifted
Uncontrollably
Passing through memories and thoughts
I held back tears
Watching
They slipped by
But new ones came into view
And I watched
I smiled
I laughed
I cried
I saw red
I hid behind the shadows
I voiced my opinion
I loved
I obsessed
I envied
I tested limits
I grew up
I developed individuality

I lived

I felt the emotions it takes a lifetime to gather

And I died

— The End —
