Hurt

Tears stream down my face,

Seeing them laugh around me.

It was just a silly little chase

That brought them joy and glee.

It hurts to know

That I'll never be accepted.

But I never show,

Always act like I was unaffected.


Is it my hair, my size, or my shoes?

Whatever it may be I'll always lose.

It isn't the physical but the emotional pain that hurts more.

Although, for them, it was all about keeping score.


They don't know, I've tried to end it all.

Of course, nobody would call.

It would take just one little slice,

To end this silly little game of life.


It pierces me like a shard,

Knowing there is nobody there for me.

It makes life hard,

For there is nowhere to flee.
