BEING MYSELF
Be yourself...
That's what everyone says.
But being myself...
gave me this black eye.
But being myself
Gave me this bruised face.
Gave me a childhood i wasn't ready to face.
i have seen small limbsslide through the armholes of toddler sized shirtsand their knees bend into boxes without any work.my eyes have watched them flow through a rowof school desks without feeling the push of cold
You all told me you caredYou all told me you would be there for meYet look where I am now
Tears in my eyes Wanting to cry
It isn't fairIt isn't rightUnable to sleep every night
