“I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they're right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.”

I am scared

I wonder if they can see it

I hear them talk behind my back

I see them pointing

I want it to stop

I am scared

 

I pretend it's no problem

I feel them stare

I touch the window

I worry they don't care

I cry myself to sleep

I am scared

 

I understand i am different

I say i am not

I dream of being normal

I try to blend in

I hope by morning it goes away

I am scared
