I’m like paper blank and white, but not for long.

         I tear and break and crumble too.

In some ways you could say
we’re the same.
I get labeled too, as if i’m not cool.

You can scrawl and scribe
        you may erase,
but it may leave a mark.
      it may leave a scar.
a scar
a scar
a scar of life
a mark of life
a scar of remembrance.
a mark of consciousness.

This is about how some people are bullied and judged about be the real them and so i decided to write this about how people and me can be like paper.
