Place

This place keeps me lonely
Because I can't be alone
In this place, I have family
But this is not my home

In this place, I am struggling
To find a sense of peace
I feel like I am running
From all that which makes me me

In this place I must contain myself
The Self I worked so hard for
I never thought I'd have to sell
Her out for someone who conforms

I cannot believe how much it hurts
To keep me in this place
Feels like it should be easier;
Feels like I SHOULD feel safe

I'm not wrong and I'm not evil
For my own way is MY OWN
I can't be like other people
And this place can't be my home.
