Tin Man

I have feelings,
And I'm struggling.
I'm just like you,
I'm a human being.
I just want to be heard,
I just want to be seen.
I'm not a machine.
I have a heart and it beats,
And it breaks and it bleeds,
And I cry and I scream,
And I ache,
And I can't take,
Another second of it,
Not another minute I can fake,
Being the robot you make
Me out to be.
