How can you not see,
The true feelings deep in me.
The hard ache of hiding,
It's still not subsiding.
Lying to myself
"Just put the thoughts on a shelf."
Please stop pretending that you can't tell,
Long ago from that high horse I fell.
I'm sorry it didn't work
But I now you know.
And I can't stand to mask it anymore
I'm not a girl.
I am not Branwen.
I'm somewhere in-between
And I know that I am Bee
I'll push my dull heart down
Anytime you need me to
And you'll never hear me
Beg you under my breath
Not to leave me
You looked at me
Like I'm a horrible
Burden just now
I look in the mirror
Like any girl my age
But I'm repulsed in horror
At what is on stage
I look at those numbers
Wait for them to go down again
114, 113, 112
I know I can't
Wait forever for
That girl to come back
Yet I can't turn
A new page or
Start on a new chapter
I think I need her
I'm so afraid
