the problem with the English language

is that there are not enough words

to describe

how truly sad

I feel

each and every day

stuck at school in a crowd

of people who will never know

who I am

what I can do

or alone at home

shut off from my family

because I don't want to hurt them

although all they want

is to hurt me

until I am perfect in their eyes

or even worse

talking to her

because she makes everything okay

but at some point

I know

that

she

will

leave.
