Emotional Bank

I want to be recognized as a beautiful bug,

but instead,

I look more like a thug.

I’m not gonna strike or attack ya’,

I have a kind heart but I fierce appearance.

They tried to give me a makeover,

but I just didn’t like the imposter in me who was trying to take over.

Don’t judge my skin,

instead, hear my story to win…

my heart.

I feel my heartbeat pound a bit faster,

when I think about someone who is willing to hear me out.

Their listening ears are like an emotional bank,

that I’d gladly deposit all my stories, for as much as they are worth…
