The type of anger where all is impossible Go punch the air Turn up the music Change the song Turn off the fucking speakers Turn them back on Kick the air Sits up and then maybe a crunch Fuck it Turn off the music Go read a book but hands can't stop shaking long enough to turn a goddamned page Go start a poem Don't finish that Can't sit still Can't walk around cause you feel stupid Back to the floor Sit up Sit down Shut up Legs up Get back up and sit down an the computer and try to go to all those fucking websites you like Bitch on that forum Or bitch on this one Neither Write a bit more of a poem Pick up the book again and set it down Turn the speakers and music back on Leave them not because you want to listen But because you feel stupid for fucking with it Back to the ground Kick at the air Maybe stop being fat I'm not fat I just hate feeling disgusting Or maybe I hate myself Go to the living room and jump on the exercise bike Ignore Mom Ignore Dad Ignore the fact that they don't accept you That they're shaking their head at you That you'll always be their son Even though he was never there And pedal Pedal harder Turn the headphones up Stare at the ground Pedal harder and maybe And maybe You'll ride away from all your problems because you're tired of running from them at this point Go back to your room Sweat dripping and sopping the back of your shirt And the front where your tits are starting to come in You'll never be a girl They say Even though you are But then you start to believe them Write more of the poem And more And more And maybe forget that you think your parents hate you But if only they'd come out and say it That'd make it so much easier Because then you could stop trying To love them so badly Loving them past their indifference Their distaste Their disapproval Just give up on you So you can give up on them Give up on me. Give up on me. Cause I never will.
