Victim of Circumstance

A Story by Imagine This

Story of my life

I'm a Victim Of Circumstance
From a young age I was pierced by daggers of random stares - like WTF?
I was shot at with bullets of negativity; like,"Oh you'll never amount to anything loser."
Brought up from an environment where being different was viewed as being taboo; like,"Oh you think you better than us?"
I was programmed not to dream, because dreams do not always become - they are left as shadows in the desert of solitude with echoes of what could have been had they became.
I'm a victim of circumstance.
Forced to abide to an educational system that was intended to shrink my dreams into impossibility; instead of empowering me with the rightful knowledge to fuel me to the destination of my goals.
They knew I was capable; that I could be anything I wanted to be -
But they forcefully fed me from a plate full of incapabilites.
Although the chains of slavery have long being cut - I still remain in the very same spot; for I'm still enslaved mentally.
