You're ungrateful.
Ungrateful for how I'm feeling
Ungrateful for the words I speak
Ungrateful for the school I attend
Ungrateful for the roof over my head
Ungrateful for people around me
Ungrateful for the things I have
Ungrateful for my life.
But I should be grateful for what?
The feelings I have that are never get addressed?
The words I speak that are never heard?
The school I attend that makes me feel worthless?
The roof over my head that I am scared of?
The people around me who belittle and abuse me?
The things I have that are never actually mine?
The life I lead but will never be happy with?
I'll be grateful when they aren't killing me.
