#WritingPrompt: i don’t know how else to live

Out of Shape

Poetry

Do you ever
feel like
you wish you could
be someone
else
simply because
you have
to be yourself?

Like it would be
so much easier
if you could be
the shape
the world
wants to see,
but no matter how
you bend and twist
that’s not who you’re
meant
to be

…and all that bending
out of shape does,
is make everything
kind of hurt

#WritingPrompt: i don’t know how else to live from the lovely
