You always find a way
To let me down
To make me scream
Bellow and heave out
The inner pain burning up
My dilapidated soul, torturing
My tattered self esteem, tormenting
My scarred face
And some little white hot
Bouts of fury
That I gather from place to place
to cover up for the humiliation
That I go through
Everyday…
And then you say
That ‘teenagers
Are stupid’…
When you don’t see
That I’m tired
Tired of trying to prove myself
Every single time
Tired of falling
Only to never get up again
Tired of running
On and on and on…

I guessed that it was you. 

So you change it for the seasons, I, myself, am too lazy for that.

There's mad people I would want to say this too but I don't have the courage and the heart to say it to them. Wow!

Thank you! That's great!
