can i, for once, be okay?

can i for once be normal
so i don’t fall out of the way it should be?
can i for once not be in the norm
because i hate being unnoticed?
can i for once be emotional
and feel like a human should feel?
can i, for once, be enough for myself
while i evolve as fast as i can?

can i, for once, be okay
with who i am, with who i can be?
being a teenager can’t be easy
when your brain won’t open the blinds
and your emotions collect dust
just as you learn to heal from childhood experiences…
so why can’t i just be enough
for myself
just once?

can somebody take over for a while and tell me it’s going to be alright?
