Not locked
Being in the familiar a cozy feeling
Nudge, nudge

A documentary, my teacher says
The bear man appears on the screen
He lives with them
The Bears
“Dangerous creatures”
he says into the camera
He loves them
father – you’ve taught me how to be brave.
strong and noble head of this house,
you taught me to stand up for what i believe in.
mother – you’ve taught me to be kind.
heart of this family, lovely and good,
I was told being an extrovert was better.
But what they didn't know,
Was that the words were a heavy blow.
I didn't want to be "better"
Made Me Who I Am
There are many people
In and out of my life,
But they all have impacted me
My hero is not ordinary
Not fictional or imaginary
Escaping the social norm
A new legacy was born
A burly personality in the wrong body
He would not be his true self if it wasn’t for modern technology
Mentor.
It was the one word I felt I could call you.
Our bond was too strong for "teacher"
Friendship a forbidden term
Mentor was the only word fitting.
Savior.
An antagonizing demon festered a feeling of imminent destruction within this decaying body
Thank you.
Thank you to the guy that hurt me.
Thank you for every lonely night I stayed up crying,
And for everytime I caught you lying to me.
Thank you for showing me that I am worth way more than I though I was.
You lay there depleted, all hope diminished.
Your goal in sight, never to be finished.
Alone with not a single savior,
Is the everlasting sense of failure
