One day im going to wake up knowing who I am
One day im going to ride down the streets, smiling just
because I can
One day im going to be able to look you in the face because I
don’t care what you see inside of me
One day im going to pull my shoulders back when entering the
classroom not afraid of what you see
One day im going to not have to capture the flaws that
escape me in public because im proud of who I am
One day I going to ring out the very emotions that are on my
sleeves, without caring if you’re too wet
One day im going to find someone who will feel warm rainbow
jimmies in their tummy, confetti in their hair, and an ache in their smile every single time they see me
One day im going to let the ones who have hurt me brisk by
like a cold breeze on my warm leather jacket of security
One day I’m going to hear each sob that escaped my mouth
become each laugh that I’ve hidden from their stupidity
One day I’m going to be independent beyond recognition, not
even needing oxygen from imagination, and quenched by the
thirst for escaping
One day I’m going to jump off the greener side of life into
the abyss where so many have broken limbs, and show them that the only
difference is that they have green dye up there
One day….just one day im going to be you
