WHY do I have to be teased?
Made fun of everyday for what I AM!
Losing faith in myself to go....on.
Pushed around, pushed away, pushed through life,
Tears fall down MY face trying to fit in...
“Stupid, dumb, ugly, weird, Annoying!”
             Calling on me; these names
first through sixth, on and
                                           on and ON.
Ignoring the voices, even now I try to block them out.
Annoying,....the title that was made for me...
                    NEVER will I change!
This is who I AM; this is who I'LL BE.
