to make others happy

sometimes i look in the mirror and I am forced to face my own eyes

deep eyes filled with such sorrowful lies

a face when in the dark has words like loser written across

and skin with so many reminders of all of life's exhaust

a neck that people remark as a giraffe

yet if its not the person's feelings, they get some laughs

a body that some say are the dream 

but with each day's remarks getting harder to fulfill, it isnt as good as it seems

sometimes I feel people forget I am a human being

because if they knew, they would refrain from leaving

yet no matter what happens to me I always end up with much stronger expectations

i see other kids my age having fun while I am suffocating with obligations

sometimes i will sit and look at the sky for some sort of opportunity

but nothing is in the sky so i always lose my ambiguity

i want people to listen to what I have to say

instead of always trying to get me away

they say im not attached to my reality, but who would want to be?

when reality is nothing but a bunch of ropes that are to thick for you to be free

they call me forgetful, disoriented, or the use of dummy so often

but reality is too cruel to those and it gives no caution

so before you comment on my story or the things I do, think

because under this shield is a girl who was told she was distinct

but the world reminded this little girl she was nothing in this place

and can be easily be replaced

she learned her knowledge from the world

because in her mind she was still this amazing girl

and the words she had been told that she kept so dear

is that when you grow up, you no longer have any fears

those once small fears turned into worries 

and now they bury her with no hurry

she wanted to make a change 

but that change was made within her and that change has stuck with her like a plague

so now she is stuck and quite snappy

but this all was to make others happy
