reflected !
I
Never seem to be enough
and as a result, I make life a bust
I
never seem to do what's right
but according to anyone besides my family
I'm a role model who has trust
I
don't understand
who's supposed to be happy because it ain't me
who is supposed to be happy because it ain't u or my family
I
never to sufficiently fulfill needs
and as a result, I stop speaking as a revolt
but the boiling occurs within me
but no one sees
I
don't know what to do to make you smile
because I do everything wrong for me...

i Can't
I can't look in the mirror and say I care
cause I don't
I can't say I never thought about death
cause I have
there's nothing here for me I guess
I started with no one and have so many regrets
I can't say I'm present
cause I'm not
I can't say I haven't tried
cause I have
Cried for so long but it seems the tears have dried up in my eyes
Does it count as crying if every time I end up with my head against a wall?
Does crying count when it's your pain looming over your head?
Can't say I'm okay
cause I'm not
Can't say I'm...
cause I don't
I can't say I never thought about death
cause I have
there's nothing here for me I guess
I started with no one and have so many regrets
I can't say I'm present
cause I'm not
I can't say I haven't tried
cause I have
Cried for so long but it seems the tears have dried up in my eyes
Does it count as crying if every time I end up with my head against a wall?
Does crying count when it's your pain looming over your head?
Can't say I'm okay
cause I'm not
Can't say I'm...

The Fight in me
I keep trying to change
I fight the trans
I fight the gay
I fight the side of my brain
I keep telling myself it's just a phase
But it's interesting how long it has stayed and how it never has gone away
I know who I am but don't want to feel this way
Will, I ever feel happy
Is it the day I forget me
or
the day I accept the real me
I fight the trans
I fight the gay
I fight the side of my brain
I keep telling myself it's just a phase
But it's interesting how long it has stayed and how it never has gone away
I know who I am but don't want to feel this way
Will, I ever feel happy
Is it the day I forget me
or
the day I accept the real me

Boat Blur
Silence is what I hear
Nothing close nothing near
Can't feel the ground beneath
Questioning if I'm at sea
Trying to breathe real slow at an attempt to float
but the fishing boat keeps moving with every wave
Waves rolling into the boat and wondering if my life is at stake
Need to call someone in case I die
Call the wrong number- my life flashes before my eyes
I woke up in a blue
Just to see my dream is the saboteur
Nothing close nothing near
Can't feel the ground beneath
Questioning if I'm at sea
Trying to breathe real slow at an attempt to float
but the fishing boat keeps moving with every wave
Waves rolling into the boat and wondering if my life is at stake
Need to call someone in case I die
Call the wrong number- my life flashes before my eyes
I woke up in a blue
Just to see my dream is the saboteur

The PTSD in Me
They say forget about the past
I tell the past to forget about me
They say: you need to relax
I say: you just don’t see
Not Everything can be seen
For me, it's the anxiety and the PTSD
I try to speak
But I feel so weak
I try to stand
But it’s hard to trust hands
Logically I understand
But it doesn’t feel that way
Some people have unfriended me
And I guess that’s okay
But by speaking my experiences
I hope to teach you today
It all happened one day
I wasn’t safe and
Because...
