(THIS IS A VENT POEM!!!! IF YOU ARE GOING THROUGH SOMETHING AND CAME HERE FOR GOOD VIBES, PLEASE DON'T READ)
My parents look at me in shame when I tell them my problems it's just in vain.
They love me. I know it to be true, but if another was their daughter, would they love me too?
Do they only love me because of my label?
Or because I seem somewhat stable?
If they knew what I said in my mind, would they take their first chance at leaving me behind?
If I was a male would I have a different role?
Would they see me as strong and not a needy foal?
If I liked another woman like me, would the devil be my identity?
What if my best isn't the best they want me to be?
What if my ideas don't a-line with what they see?
If I am loud, and happy, I'm annoying, and crazy.
If I am quiet, and shy, I'm stupid and lazy.
If I hide my real self I'm a fake, but if I show my real self my friendships are at stake.
If I gained weight would I be just as pretty?
Or would people stare and look at me in pity?
People will label me for anything I do.
I can't be anything without you telling me what I am, and who.
I want to be something in this world but I want that choice to be mine and not yours.
What if something I like isn't something they'd expect?
Will I be viewed differently for my interests?
I want to understand this world we call home.
But it's hard when there are two right answers, leading to confusion, leaving me
alone.
