I feel stuck,

Stuck between a dark place and rock bottom.

I am so scared,

Scared that if you saw the real me you wouldn’t like me,

Actually you would be disgusted.

Longing for something hidden so deep inside,

I no longer recognize it.

Shunned upon by society, never to see the light of day.

And if the day shall come that you might have to see it,

Will you love me still,

Will you still see me,

Or will it be greater than the sum of me.

Well, I hope when that time comes,

You are not hurt too much,

And that you will be able to live your life with the same joy and happiness.

I hope the shame and disappointment won’t be too much for you,

more than the love.

But even then, if you choose to part ways,

I hope you still remember the good times.

I hope you still remember the good parts and all the pretty parts.

And I hope you remember me,

The whole sum of me.
