I've been broken so many times
Mentally abused
Scared out of my mind
Silent
...
Today I shall write in cursive,
And try something new.
I'm tired of the same old script,
So I'll try something different. How about you?
...
You know what's wierd?
I don't even have to look you in the eyes
Because I already know you
I don't know how,
...
The best of both worlds:
Yeah, that's what I need.
Curves and lines,
Anything can be mine.
...
I'm broken
But what broke me?
I don't have a clue
But you're trying to fix me
...
When I was little...
I wanted to be black
So I'd feel less guilt about slaves.
I wanted to be fat
...
What do you do
When the only person
Who can see the tears
Is drowning in their own?
...
I knew you as
Simple imperfection
Beautiful
But scarred and lost
...
What have I done?
I can't shake the feeling that
I can't turn this around
I've wasted so many months
...
