This face isn’t me
It can’t be mine
Can I please go back in time
To sharper jaws
And whiter smiles
To thicker hair
That’ll grow in a while
This body ain’t me
It can’t be mine
I want to jump forward into time
With less sugar
With more hope
But to me, I can’t think so
It’ll never happen
It can’t be
I am right now
Right now is me
Wired teeth
And bigger tames
There is nothing that I can blame
It’s just life
And I must accept it
It’s ok to change and grow
It’s just life
Nothing is in danger
It’s not like I’ve become mold
Changing cells
And cutting pills
Trying to make me less ill
Open ears but silent mouths
When you said you’d share
But then left me out.
This can’t be.
This is me.
