Jumping Mouse

I am the jumping mouse, I jump for laughter.
I mold my way into hearts, and I laugh.

I seek to fit in, to belong in the circles.
I wish to walk among the crowd.

I am the jumping mouse, I jump for smiles.
I give compliments, and I smile.

I hope to be a good friend, to be loyal.
I listen to the most amazing stories.

I am the jumping mouse, I jump for peace.
I try to change outcomes, and I listen.

I want everyone to get along, to be happy.
I wish to be the best foundation.

I am the jumping mouse, I jump too late.
I see them go on in their lives, and I remain.

To be the jumping mouse, to be me.
It requires a certain distance, a certain reservation.

To be the jumping mouse, to be me.
I give up my own uniquie personailty.

I fit the male gaze in my own way,
I make things better, but forget about my dreams.

Luckily a voice remains, and reminds me to be stronger.
Luckily it's never too late to start over.
