"Tied Up In A Knot"

Many heavy looks from people
Thinking it is just a bit simple
As they murmur from far away
Noticed them yet it ruined my day

A simple word is nothing more
Yet it did expand just to tore
My mind overwhelmed by it
Like my whole body was hit

Hatred causing insecurity
Growing through insanity
Every year making it a chain
Concealing through the pain

A never-ending sacrifice
Won't they ever be just nice
A not difficult request I made
Will they ever want me to fade

My eyes and mind baffled
Much times I've been fooled
Hopefully I can endure this
Action needs to stop at least
