I guess?

People been saying telling me I'm weird
I thought they were never true
Actually I don't even know what weird is
I thought I'm normal enough
Guess I thought wrong eh?
What is common sense?
What is straightforward?
What is honesty?
I learnt we should practice honesty
But at the same time to not hurt others by words
How come? 
Honesty is literal, no?
They say I should express
But when I did, they say nay
Apparently it's wrong for me to do what I want
Or be whoever I want to be
They tell I should do what I want
I want me, but being me is not good enough
Being me lack of skills needed
Therefore me cannot be real
They talk the sense out of me
Trying to make me think straight 
But no matter how hard I tried I can't 
I'm never like them
Am I weird?
Am I retarded? 
Am I crazy?
Or I'm just me? 
I don't know
Time will tell they say
But I never figure it out yet
I think
I guess
So

Signing off,
Still searching for the me I'm supposed to be.

Feeling beautiful is when you feel good about yourself So believe that you're beautiful In your way

wonder

I still wonder if you think of me Or know that you’re my favourite piece Of poetry or put your palms up To the sky and wish for the stars to  Keep me safe at night or Hope that sometimes I can feel Your arms holding me tight Or even just wonder if I am doing fine I still wonder if you talk about me Did you tell your mum that you decided  To leave? Did your friend hold you As you cried the night the unmentionable  Happened or was it so unmentionable  That you felt mortified To say my name after that?  I still wonder if you are okay, but sometimes I know you are not, even though you seem fine I can tell you are wearing a mask And how I wish to be there for you Though you probably refuse me You see, I still wonder about you  But Do you ever wonder about me?

whyyyy

you claimed that I was a something you knew of very well you decided to tittle tattle  about how I roam my life without even imploring my consent hoping to find believers oh you can't you see I'm doing better now no you're blind in these treacherous waves so called life since you're the one to claim to bear the utmost hardship of all no mankind felt your struggle only to reason why you should make sense when relevancy is way off line are you eating though? I may not be the one to nod yes to every single word you utter unlike some I ain't like you I'm building and more to come like how Gambino said it don't be mad cause I'm doing me better than you're doing you just don't
