My Identity
My Identity
Seen as one thing
Identify as another
A man or woman, they’re asking
Identify as neither
A mask, I keep on me
To keep my thoughts inside
No one wants me to be
Who I am, on the outside
I stay behind the mask,
Protective and comforting
I am not able to bask
In myself, to no ending
So I stay here, by myself
Because no one likes my true self
