Who I Am

I am the king of imagination
I work in wonder
I close my eyes when I lay at night
And I dream of color
I go to school on my own
No one to keep me company
I seek approval I always feel like
Nobody love me
Feel like nobody want me
Feel like they kept the bowl from Me
When they saw I was hungry
They amused at my suffering
Depending on my fantasies
Like abusing a substance
Escaping my reality
From the desk when I thump it
Run away on a rhythm
If you make it you lucky
I'm latching onto my genius
But they snatching it from me
I never challenged
They violated
I know corruption
Labelled obsessive compulsive
Tried to make me puppet
I chose my pen
Instead of my fist
And learned to
Write these wrongs
My verbal resistance and my
Strings was too long
I pulled on the sticks and now I'm
Switching the roles
I'm ventriloquist
I did it
I never let them kill the child in me
I grew up fast
My mental health declined and peaked
I'm hot then I'm cold
I'm cloudy and my mind at sea
I'm drowning fast
I'm under by a thousand leagues
And from a boy to a man
I only kept one thing
My rhythm and my natural
Niche for finding rhymes and schemes
Immortalized by the lines
That I scribe in sheets
It's from the bottom my heart
Till it declines to beat
Yea
