Pluto Descendant

A Poem by Dina

Today I woke up and was like "wtf" my life is no longer mine :')

I have always drawn in powerful people

Stubborn, forceful, influential types

Because I'm quiet, and speak kind of light

I thought this pairing would be just right

But I realize very few of them can love me right

They grow curious, then enamored

And suddenly, my plans become tampered

As they pick me like a flower and shove me into their worlds

People like to tell me what to do, how to breath, and what color shirt I should wear

Women too

And I let them.

Because I am not good at the things that theyre best at

So begrudgingly, I seemingly go with the flow

And sometimes, when they're not looking

I will stick out my tongue in the name of rebellion

But they rarely leave me alone

They like being shoulder to shoulder

Nose to nose

Even when I'm doing nothing, they'd like to know

They'd like to check in and have me bare my soul

Keep me to themselves and away from the globe

But I am not an object

I do not fit in a pocket

So it's time to make a choice

Either let me go, or lover me properly
