maybe I'll be fixed

I used to wake up and just watch you breathe,

I'd see your face and smile; we were in love. 

It hurt me in a way that I would seethe

Every time I saw you and I've become

A monster who covers all of their scars,

A beast who twists your words so that they hurt,

A freak who thinks we're written in the stars,

When you say I'm beautiful, I avert

 

Because I'm scared of what I do not know,

Don't know if I can be happy at all,

But maybe life will live and let me grow,

But I'm scared that I'll only ever fall.

So when you leave I'll rip myself to shreds,

But things beyond repair may yet still mend.

    I’ve always wondered

    What it’s like to be myself

    Openly and honest

    And not hiding behind bookshelves

    Waiting for someone to see

    And let me into their heart.

    My neighbor is doing Duolingo across the street,

    He’s in his sixties learning a new language

    And I’m just eating leftovers, watching him,

    Wondering if he’s practicing French for his husband.
     

  • See you, brother

    I don't think you're a waste of space,

    I'll give you my room and my pillow

    As long as you make the bed afterwards,

    And close the windows to keep the rain out. 

     

    I don't think your not enough,
