Have you ever felt misunderstood?

I’ll tell you how it feels

The core of your heart burns with anguish

Little volcanoes erupt in your soul

You fail to fathom your own emotions

Something crumbles inside you while you sit

Your only escape are your tears or your rage

Both of which you need to suppress

Both of which are condemned

The more you speak, the less you become of a girl

The less you become of an agreeable child or a congenial human

Simply because reasoning is neither accepted nor appreciated

Have you ever been the least preferred one?

I’ll tell you how it feels

You begin by thinking it’s funny

They obviously love you but don’t show

Why do the rules change for others though?

Why is their inexpressible love expressed when it’s not you?

Slowly, your smile starts to fade away,

And before you know, the fun in funny vanishes

You still try and understand

Count your own flaws every night

Cry because they were the only people who were supposed to love you despite your flaws

Slowly, you start accepting

It’s like taking continuous little sips of hot water

Letting it burn your throat as it moves down slowly

You can feel your system accepting it.

It’s like keeping your feet in cold water

Resisting it for the first few moments

And then not feeling a thing

It is like every other new thing

That your body eventually has to accept.
