Who I am

They sink their teeth

Into the weak

One cut, two cuts, I know the scars won’t fade

If they only knew

The crimes committed in my room.

Their words running through my mind

They sting because they aren’t lies

S**t, ugly, stupid, and dumb.

I guess I’m transparent to everyone

But all I want is to feel loved

They saw my scars

She stared at me in shock

Said my life isn’t that hard

There’s no way I could be lost

My life’s perfect she says

As I sit in tears

He said the problem is I’m stupid

I’m lucky that I’m here

She thinks I want attention

He says I’m psychotic

I know that they won’t get it

But it’s how I get through s**t

I remember the violence, the screams

Dilated pupils, threatening words thrown at me

I’m know you don’t understand

But please, just accept me for who I am
