If only I’d never met you
If only I had been stronger
If only I had seen sooner
Just how abusive you are
If only I hadn’t let you
Turn my life to ruin
If only I hadn’t tried
To unmake you as the villain
If only I’d turned away quicker
As soon as you turned creep
If only I hadn’t let your hatred
Seep into my skin
If only I had seen you sooner
For the evil that you are
If only I hadn’t let you
Use me as you did
If only I didn’t know
That it was all my fault

What’s wrong?
Said the snake to the songbird.
What’s wrong, little songbird?
Why don’t you sing me a song?
You see,
Said the songbird to the snake.
You see, I’m tired of running away.
Is this what it feels like?
To not be considered human?
To be some invalid,
Invisible thing
That almost nobody wants?
Is this what it feels like?
To be rejected and turned away?
I’ll say it: I hate our president
All my life, people have written me off as
“different”
“possessed” and
“antisocial”
And while yes
I am different
I am not possessed
I am disabled
