Skull.

Something is pushing themselves from inside

Every attack is overwhelming my mind

Cages and frustrating pressure, pushing

When in the first place it's all because of me

I long to see deep shades of purple appear

Though my alibi makes me hypocritical

I always seem to be the one whimpering

Yes, you got exactly what you wanted

You secretly disguise yourself under her  

And use her words to your advantage

Even if that means devastation to your gender

It's just another stab in the back of the ignorant

Foolishness turn me into who I never sought to be

And now I'm living to push myself from inside

My skull was made to shelter, protect

Never to let anything in...or out

Interesting, deep poem. Never thought about a skull as a means to keep things in as well as out. Makes me wonder honestly what a pure thought would actually look like, how it would affect the five senses. I think you might have inspired me, not sure yet though, too tired to tell haha. Either way, a cool one to read.

We should continue to learn everyday no matter how old we get and we are certainly meant to express our own thoughts to show our individuality.

Powerful. You capture the internal battle in the mind so deeply, as well as the external pressure of people (love and life)... You make emotion so vivid...
