The Truth in the Purest Form

I have become a punchline to every joke,
My shyness is not appealing,
They would barely notice if I spoke,
I have become the one in the centre of the teasing.

I never tried to be annoying,
To bug the people who care,
They haven't noticed who they are destroying,
But I know that life isn't fair.

I tried to be nice,
But in the end it didn't matter.
It feels like I'm running on thin ice,
I feel like it will shatter.

I've been hiding it so long,
The darkness has become overpowering.
I never thought i would be wrong,
But it has started towering.

I don't want to be ignored,
I want to be the one to explore.
I ask of you, Lord.
Help me. I can't take it anymore.
