You must have hurt
Pain, common factor
Distance, must divert
To lies, quick reactor
Little knowledge

Guiding actions- fear
Boundaries set and not subtly
Since young, spirit breaking
Placed in position of disadvantage
Those before- pressing, trying
Won't give in, path not average
To understand me
Here's the good news
Sadness, at times, all-consuming
nonetheless, finding love through hues of blacks and blues
