Sorry
for trying to define myself
for being different and imperfect
and not the person you want me to be
for wanting to forge my own path instead
of letting you carve one out for me.
Sorry for wanting to leave this town
to never looking back again
to never listen to you again.
I’m sure you understand
my need to be accepted
my wish to separate
myself
from your hurtful words.
I’m sure you understand,
Don’t you?
