The Truth, The Whole Truth and Nothing But...
Look, I apologize to the society of intolerant haters,
That I've surrounded myself with over the years,
I've been told I need help, that my mind is not normal,
Hell, most people think I'm crazy and barely make sense.
But my mind IS normal, it's just a different kind,
Than most normal people, but I stick to my reasoning,
Drown myself in poetry, trying to cope with the self-hatred,
That adds to my stress and levels the seasoning.
Mentally ignorant, panic-stricken with negative emotions,
That threaten my wellbeing and emotional stability,
You say that I'm too quiet: "Speak up so I can hear you!"
But I've already answered your questions to the best of my ability.
I don't run from people, I run from their curiosity,
That follows me every time I release new poetry,
"Are you depressed? Should I tell your parents?"
NO!
Just stop trying to help me and forget this novelty.
