My Universe


In my universe, My whole life is a curse, A curse I must live. In my universe, My mind is very fragile, My chin must face up. In my universe, All I ever feel is pain. And I have grown numb. In my universe, Nobody wants me around. So why do I stay? In my universe, No one ever notices, The internal scars. In my universe, I don't deserve any love, That I have been told. In my universe, I've never been understood But that will change now. Now you will listen. I will change my universe. To better myself.
