Broken being built back up...

when your eyes betray you, and you look like the victim to the fool...
Their silent cries, thou shall not hear, Regret will fill them, As soon as I stand up.
You lie to stay safe, in a world so cold,
You will never forget, and neither shall I.
Never forget the things I was told, 
However I'm strong, and look how the pain will unfold.
I'll see you crying, just as I did,
and I'll laugh, just as you did.
you never really knew me, I can't deny,
But every time I tried to open up, I saw what truly lies in your eyes.
Pain and misfortune, I was never the blame,
However you did that, made me feel like game,
Game to the predator, I felt hurt.
But as I get up, you will fall.
Cuz fighting back has always been a call...

Whenever I write you do not know what really goes on down below,
"I don't have a reason" you always say.
Seemed to get mad whenever I brought home something "gay"
I struggle and struggle but I have to fight,
the more I learn, the stronger I am tonight.
One day I'll be gone, and another new me will arise, and you won't ever notice...
Cuz, you don't agree whenever I try to compromise.
