Myth
I have lost all whom I thought would stay
I let my guard down only for you to pull the rug away
You are gone and I am lost what shall be next?
I look around for a way out but all I witness are wrecks.
What did I do to earn this misfortune?
For all bad things, you find me at fault?
Okay, you say, If I am the beholder of all bad endings.
May I just end it and start a new beginning?
I hold myself close to the edge but i just can’t jump
There is more for me here but this at this moment I struggle to defeat this stump
“Why would you do this?” They shout out and plead.
Well if I mean so little why shall you care if I bleed
I stumble and trip but I just can't find a reason to stay
So, the answer must be for me to go away
You call me so fragile and complex
But the truth is I’m the same. I just love the same sex
I call out to you for help but all you hear is silence.
Yet I am standing right here I am witnessing no absence.
I wish to try to help myself
Yet my ways of coping inconvenience yourself
“women should have rights over their body.” You say
but I’m not allowed to change today?
“People don’t change.”
Then why does the person in my mirror look so strange.
I am not okay in my own body
Yet you force me to remain a proper lady
“sit down and sit still!”
why can’t you hear me when I tell you I’m ill?
This burning urge is just something I can’t kill.
Oh, I forgot all you see of me is another bill
Something to pay and be done with
Well honey I hate to break it to you, but I’m not just a myth.
