If I should die...

If I should die, let it be known that I didn't live to my fullest potential

That I was never satisfied and if I should die... hope for me was catastrophic

And happiness a mere idea

I want to believe in the streets of gold and the warm hug of God but I was only ever taught his discipline, only ever felt his anger

Never really saw his plan and lead his path.

Hurt and unrest,  familiar even after a good night's sleep. My heart felt uneasy.

My body - uncomfortable in this world. Amongst, this mankind.

Unfathomable

Unfaithful

Dreams of what was intangible

But I saw my birds

My three little birds except they weren't at my doorstep

They were above me

On thé lining of my roof

Spaced equally

Sent to scare me

Make me doublethink

See past their beauty or their song I couldn't hear

I felt the grim reaper

Sitting within me

Heavy on my chest

Breathing beneath my mask

Praying for my downfall

Wishing on my death

Steps accounted for and words unheard

World unexplored

A woman's body is all I've ever known and barely at all

A man's body is all I've ever feared

Mostly and for all

I felt the itch beneath my cheap stitches

And I understood

I don't know if I'm coming back

I don't know if I have a choice

If I've ever had a choice

18 years have gone by and I don't understand life

Queer

Fear

Beer

Cheers and goodbye

Peer and no friends visit my burial site

I lived, laughed, loved, most importantly I tried

To cultivate your happiness

Explore the meaning of the good life

But I failed

Because money, riches, and abundance were more about favour

Languages I couldn't hear

And bodies I couldn't touch

Spirits I refused to see

I couldn't be guided, and I stung so I died like a bee

I couldn't fight but I never cut

I couldn't match life because he didn't bring a gun to a knife fight... he brought all thé ideas that I could only wish for

True love turned out to be fake

True peace doesn't exist

Happiness is mere Christianity is a glass case except the glass can't be broken

And writing

That hurt the most because it doesn't heal as I supposed

It lacks meaning to my foes

Never expressed my thoughts, never enough words

My writing was never exposed to gold

It was just words strung together, it didn't keep me alive after death.

In this fight with life, just know I tried my fucking best.
