Sometimes I am scared, I wish for this to end.
I make so many mistakes,
I hate this day,
I push love away.

I can count my mishaps on reams of paper,
I count my blessings on one hand.
I feel so shafted, primarily by me.
I worry about the things that I cannot change.

You and me cannot be,
We are confused and lost and shamed.
I live for the day I will have freedom again,
The day I will be happy, just to be me.

So you want me to tell you who I am,
I try really hard to do so for you... for me.
Why do you ask such things of me,
and then never even listen to me?

It's alwayz darkest before the dawn. Whoever is causing you all this hurt is an @$$. I hope you're okay.

Thomas

Let not a word go unspoken,
A thought go unheard,
Let not one heart be broken
Dream of a perfect world.

-Th.A.P.
