We're everything

We're weak

And yet you still must

Trap us with laws

Because deep down inside

You know we are strong

We're insignificant

But you get distracted

By our clothes

And you need a girl

Too feel like a man

We're innocent and petty

But we fill you

With fear

We're nothing

But we're everything

We do everything

You do

Better then you do

Even with your laws

And the way you treat us

Even with the cold stares

The harsh words

We keep going

We keep fighting

We keep being

Everything

I bet you wish

To be like us

Because we're everything

  • Silver arms

    Silver arms

    Reaching up

    Delicate

    And yet bearing

    Weight

    A big middle

    Rough

    Covered in patterned skin

    Big enough

    That my arms don't

    Wrap around

    The course outside

  • The moon

    Bathing me in a ghoulish glow

    Brightening the dark

    Staring at me

    Barely disturbed

    All the way up there

    Floating among

    The stars

    Simply being

    Bathing me in a ghoulish glow

    I love the moon
