Predator or Prey

There's only so much
A girl can take
Before the prey
Cause her will to break

School is unmerciful to my kind
The system is set to separate
The prey and the predators

My label?
A Predator

My thoughts:

"Predators are bullies

And prey are the bullied"

That was my mistake

The prey are the beautiful ones
The small innocents
The ones faking kindness
They are the judges of the school

The predators however
have been deemed ugly
Separated from the prey
Feared not because they are predators
But because the prey may catch the ugly

This is me. Tazanna Johnson.

Being a predator is a punishment
One not wished to anyone
Punished for imperfections
Punished for being ugly

Throwing coins
Wishing a star
Praying to Jehovah
That maybe I could be prey
But it's not meant to be

Because all I'll ever be

is an outcast
A nobody
A stupid ugly predator
