I'm tired to speak
because no one will listen to me
they said they hated me
for me being myself
and so I hide myself
because I'm scared
that I will be compared
just like how they wish
I could be that perfect version of a man
they always wanted me to become.

- Comment from author about the poem: It sounds incredibly exhausting to carry the pressure of everyone else's expectations while having to bury who you actually are just to feel safe or accepted.
