my voice lost
my smile gone
this is the hardest
part of the day
to wake up every morn
thinking i'll survive
no matter what you do
you end up here anyway
that burning in your stomach
that blush on your face
apparently your the freak
who is way out of place
you notice the activity
around you, but you dont, you dont participate, you dont pay attention
if someone speaks
you dont reply
just sit silently
the teacher says your name
everybody turns to at you
they ask " who is that?"
like you came today and your new
the teacher keeps talking
your brain keeps wiring it self to get used to this gruesome way
of school telling you you dont belong
i am different, a sad song
theyd say
but my question is
how long...
