I’m torn
torn between who I really am and who you want me to be, I mourn
the loss of her, for so long I listened to you, baffling
when we met you thought I was callous, strange, too vociferous for your liking
I changed myself in so many ways, wanting you to love me
now I’m being torn apart, my true nature screaming to just let her be
will you love me knowing who I am
you don’t like tattoos so I haven’t gotten one, what’s with this program
don’t like cursing so I’ve curbed my tongue
want me to stay at home to cook and clean, oh how fun
so around my demon, I put up walls
to keep her locked away, so your eyeballs she will not maul
but now she is screaming to be let out, it’s her due
why can’t you see that she is a huge part of me, she could love you
everything that makes me strong, that makes me who I am
can’t you please just try to understand?
