Birthday Blues

Can't afford unanswered calls

Glad you all remembered

But all I want is to spiral up in my bed

It might sound selfish

But I don't want to be asked about my plans

I have emptied all the cans

Thank you for all your gifts

I sincerely hope my mood shifts

Showing my teeth forcefully

For y'all to think I have accepted the day gracefully

Counting my stars and then being outweighed by the scars

My favorite thing to do is to be left alone

But I think for some reason a party and a blissful time is what I owe

Want to be happy but only for you all
