Your love is a lie
It's selfish and vile
You don't love me
but the idea of me that you made up
You won't accept me for who I truly am
My identity to you is "nonsense"
It's make believe, over the top, just too much
You won't respect my pronouns
So you don't respect me
If that's the way you want it
Then this is where I must go now
Because I'm not gonna keep you around
I love and respect myself more than that
I spoke my piece
But you wouldn't listen
You just tried to center yourself
and silence me
I let you go for my own sanity
Then you called and texted
but I won't respond
I know where that would lead
My identity and pronouns aren't something
you get to "agree to disagree" on
So the sound of my silence is all you'll get back
