Fear
What will they say to me today? Will I cry?
Am I really fat and ugly like they say?
Should I even continue to try?
It's like I have a debt to these bullies that I must pay...
I want to quit school, but that's just not what is right.
I will take this pain,quietly, I shall not tell,
even though on the inside I am breaking, not alright.
On the outside, I am just an empty shell.
I'm paralyzed by the fear of shame,
this is all just so wrong.
To these bullies my whole existence is just a game.
I hate myself, but I must be strong.
I have to make my momma proud,
even though she doesn't understand or care.
I want to hide and stay away from the cruel crowd,
but it's just not possible,it isn't fair.
The teachers hear, but never intervene.
I'm just another annoying child;
another vine in the ravine.
I just wish they would tell my what I did.
I guess I have to have hope,
that one day someone will be kind.
Maybe I am destined for this not to end, learn to cope
True happiness and sweet bliss I hope to find.
I must say this, before it's too late,
and I am nothing but a lost cause.
Lost to my destiny, and that cruel fate.
only to fall apart,be put back together with old tape and gauze.
Maybe it's time to make my own path,
and do what I feel I should.
I must find myself, or fell torments wrath.
It's a sheer desire,desire to succeed, it's a matter of would.
Will I cower down,
or stand strong on my own?
Resting proudly atop my head; lies a queens crown,
proving to others, it's okay to stand alone.
