Sometimes i think there's something wrong with me

I look soft

I look small

But really

I take up more space than i deserve

I am actually sharp and jagged

Unloveable

They say i am pretty

I don't want to be pretty

They call me a young lady

That is not what i want to be

I want to be handsome

I want to be the one at the bottom of the stairs

Staring at the pretty girl

In a red dress

Or maybe its blue

I want to be a boy

A happy

Lucky

Boy.

Why am I like this?

Why don't Ii want to wear dresses

Put on lipstick

Why can't i just be a

Goddamn

Girl.

I'll never be enough

Everyone wants a real girl

Everyone wants a real boy

Nobody will ever want the monster

That I am
