This Is Me

I decided to do a song fan fiction about Peter because I could. It's a little depressing but it isn't too bad. Please comment if you have any feedback. I would love to hear it from you guys.
I hope you enjoy.

I am not a stranger to the dark

Peter was not a stranger to darkness. He had been in the dark many times before. So many times, in fact, that he sometimes felt as if he had never left.

Hide away, they say

'Cause we don't want your broken parts

Nobody wanted his broken self. He was reminded everyday. He was reminded that he was broken beyond repair and that nobody wanted to pick up the broken pieces.

I've learned to be ashamed of all my scars

All of those scars that he gained over the years from both good and bad experiences, he was ashamed. He had been taught to be ashamed of all of his scars. Every single one of them.

Run away, they say

No one'll love you as you are

He had been hold day after day that he couldn't be loved by anyone. That their deaths were all his fault and he believed them. He believed every single lie that they told him.

But I won't let them break me down to dust

Peter had gone through the pain that they all made him go through. He had been bullied day after day for years and every da he had come home with a new bruise. He had had enough of them breaking him. He didn't deserve it. He didn't deserve any of it.

I know that there's a place for us

For we are glorious

Peter believed that there was a place for him in this world and for so long, he had no idea where it was.

When the sharpest words wanna cut me down

He had heard some of the worst insults that anyone could imagine. 'Whoever said that words would never hurt them was wrong,' he would think every night. 'It hurt. It hurt so much.'

I'm gonna send a flood, gonna drown 'em out

Peter eventually learnt how to drown out the words that they would say to hurt him but he still heard what they said and it hurt.

I am brave, I am bruised

Peter never let his bullies – especially Flash – see that they hurt him with what they said, with every punch that they threw at him. He had to be brave.

I am who I'm meant to be, this is me

He was who he was, even if he didn't understand how important he was to the world.

Look out 'cause here I come

When he was bitten by that stupid spider, he thought that everything was going downhill for him but then he opened his eyes. He saw all of the good that he was doing, all of the deaths that he prevented, all of the people that he had saved while he was Spider-man. Then he understood. He understood his place in the world.

And I'm marching on to the beat I drum

He enjoyed feeling that indescribable feeling that he had always felt when he was out being Spider-man. That feeling of his breath still being taken away by the first swing of the night. That feeling that he could actually lead himself, show himself, be himself. He loved it.
