He said he didn't understand my sadness
I thought, what's not to understand?
I get lost in the desperation
I remember where I came from
The darkness of that path
I see through the beauty
Finding the pain
Balancing in that moment between them
Often makes me insane
It's like grasping at an image
Of who I long to be
An accepting version
Of the uncomfortable me
The one that claws from the inside
Cynically questioning
The love that surrounds me
