I tried to be strong
To love like I know I can
I don't know where to turn to anymore
I'm alone
I have a metallic taste in my mouth
I smile ruefully
I try to stay angry
It's better than the pain since no one cares
You left again
I guess I'm a prophet
'Cause remember when I said you would
I apparently knew you more than you wanted to admit
I have to laugh
It's dry though
You watch me, while I'm sitting there
I'm watching you
I came to a point crucial to me
I found I can't trust any one
Because everyone lies and then leaves
You may read my words one day
But you'll never understand my pain
Not until you've walked in my shoes
Been in my place
No one will know my pain
Because I'm that kid in the background
I'm nice and don't really act out
I do my work, and love to read
I'm not good with people, so I put my work online
The screen is my sanctuary
No one sees me
So no one knows who I truly am
I have to wonder
"Who am I?"
I don't know
"Where am I?"
Does anyone really care?
I'm a myth
I'm a dream
I'm just a memory
And I leave a greater impact on everyone
Especially when I leave
I don't know why
I don't know how
I just know I'm here
But I don't know where
I help when I can
I'm a 16 year old
Yet I can't act my age
Since I was 3, I was 30
And I still grow, yet I need to slow down
I'm 5'8" and I know I can't go back
I blame my dad for my height since I'm taller than my mom
I had to grow up an adult
All because when my mom was my age
She met my dad, 26 at the time
I grew up hating him, and trying to get out of my life
I tried suicide, and found out I'm very hard to ****
I tried over 300 times, I just gave up
Someone has a hold on my life
And it's all a joke for their amusement
YOU WANT A LOOK IN MY LIFE????? THEN COME ON!!!!!!!
*just leave me alone when you're done.....
