Wishing


I…, I never asked for mt rice, I never asked to be a burden, So why was I born to suffer it all, I NEVER ASKED TO BE BORN, Your insults on being better, Your lectures on control over my tics, YOU DONT KNOW A DAMN THING ABOUT ME, Tourette’s weren’t my choice, Being a slower Learner was never my call, ARNT I supposed to feel safe, To feel as if I have a family safety net…, So why do I feel myself gripping onto dear life when trying, Why..DO I FIND MYSELF WISHING FOR SOMETHING ELSE, Wishing to be dead, To feel safe and accepted, To feel wanted and supported, Is that truly to much or selfish of me, Wishing for something I never got. -Kitsuko Dragonstar
