When Tears Form

And once again,

You've pointed out my flaws,

I know what they are,

But you've gotta tell them to the world,

I feel like your punching bag,

Using words to knock me around,

You do it for everyone to see,

And you show it to the world

You treat me,

Like I am a nobody,

You just sit and call me names,

Right to my face,

Everybody stops and stares,

But no one seems to care,

And I'm scared to shed a tear,

You should know that you're mean when tears form

But I guess it was fault,

Cuz I gotta pick words more carefully,

Cuz if I say something wrong,

You twist it up and throw it back at me,

They hit me right smack dab in the heart,

Cuz don't you know I take it personally,

People just stop and stare,

While you show the whole world

You treat me,

Like I am a nobody,

You just sit and call me names,

Right to my face,

Everybody stops and stares,

But no one seems to care,

And I'm scared to shed a tear,

You should know that you're mean when tears form

Baby why are you doing this to me,

I can remember back when,

You were kind,

And I could feel alive

You treat me,

Like I am a nobody,

You just sit and call me names,

Right to my face,

Everybody stops and stares,

But no one seems to care,

And I'm scared to shed a tear,

You should know that you're mean when tears form

When tears form,

I'm scared to shed a tear,

You did this all to me honey,

You should know that you're mean when tears form <3

Author's Note

Sooo... I hope you like it! If you're wondering I wrote this song about my sister. For some reason it seems like she finds excuses to make fun of me and one night I was really sad about it so I wrote this... Hope you like! <3

Ok, first of all i had like 42 RR before yours but when i saw Taylor Swift Teardrops on my guitar's picture i couldn't resist ! I have known her for a little time but i can't stop listening to her, she's my second favourite singer :)
Now, coming to your poem, pardon, song:
You must have worked a lot on it because it's beautiful, it's simple but expressive, i don't live in US, here where i live bullying exists but it's not so "common" so i can't relate very easily, anyway i can feel empathy to the "protagonist" of the song, just one thing: I would kill to get the guitar playing it, could you post the link to it in the author's note?
