I Thought I Knew Happiness…
I thought I knew happiness,I thought I understood what it meant,But these feelings,Bubbling inside of me,A ridiculous smile plastered across my face,I thought I knew happiness,I thought I knew joy,But now I feel like I was only play acting,Being accepted for who I am,Not for who they want me to be,I thought I knew happiness,I…

Little Porcelain Bird
I can’t help it,I am so used to fending for myself,Fighting for emancipation,Wrestling away help like my life depended on it,Resistance felt normal to me,Conflict and struggle part of the norm,That now, with your love so enveloping,I feel like a fragile little bird,Made of rare porcelain, But chipped and cracked,Weathered from misuse,A rare gem,One we are…
