Description Hey mom

why can't you just let me be me
is it really such a hard thing to do
You don't ever let me be
what should i do to please you

you don't like the black
i wear on my eyes
why do you always give me flack
i can hear your lies

i have feelings that i hide
emotions you do not know
i try to keep them locked inside
sometimes they overflow

I know I'm not who you wanted
I'm the person you got
you are always disappointed
how many battles have we fought

I'm sorry i became who i am
I'm not acceptable to society
but this is who i am
and this is your reality

put up with me
while you have to
but please don't refuse to see
I'm not going to change just to please you

i like the color black
and the color red
it's acceptance that i lack
the reason why i bled

put yourself in my shoes
get accusing glances
do what i do
and look at lost chances

cry yourself to sleep
watch a candle burn
cut yourself so deep
but yet not learn

cover up your scars
laugh until it hurts
watch yourself go so far
until you want to dig a deep hole in the dirt

tell me how you feel
tell me what you fear
show me the emotions you concealed
feel the hot tears

watch me grow
walk through life like a dream
i will use what i know
i am nothing is what it seems

your daughter,
zoey
