I’m
not
Self conscious
Not about what you
see
What you see is normal girl average
She has a sparkling personality
And pretty green eyes
She gets scared
Paranoid
Even though
you cannot tell
You are blind oblivious ignorant
The girl with
The personality
And the eyes
Sometimes wants
to be a boy
She feels
Wrong
About herself
about her world
She doesn’t like lies deception untruths
But she’s so good
at lying
After years
Of careful practice
She uses Ace bandages
And sleeps with them Wrapped
Wrapped
Wrapped
Around her chest
(flat enough as it is)
and pretends to be someone she
isn’t
(not by a long shot)
She sits in her room
In class
At the mall
And smiles laughs jokes
Because
After
All
Boys Don’t Cry
And she doesn’t feel
Like a girl
anymore.
