27- labels

please don't call me
brave
in all of this

inside i tremble
and shake

please don't call me
good
with all of this

i curse
and rue the days

there will be a time
of calm and
beauty

where worry and
fear will be
a thing of the past

but some days
i can't see
the wiseness
in those words

sometimes
i can't see
the blueness of the sky
through all the clouds

sometimes
i can't be
who you all
want me to be

survivor
warrior
hero
soldier

all of these
are words
that put me
in a porcelain cage

far from
the reality of me

(done)
