I am not the only one
I am not the only one
who is afraid to feel this way
I am not the only one
who can't make people stay
I am not the only one
who fears life after dusk
I am not the only one
crying in the mornings musk.
I am not the only high school student
who panics during every test
I am not the only science nerd
who mourns being repressed
I am not the only child
who lives without their dad
I am not the only human
who lives life being sad
I am not the only one
who is afraid to feel this way
but I will be the one to say
I am exactly who I am
because of everything I over came.
I am exactly who I am
with no one else to blame.
