Why Can't They See?

7 1 6
                                    

Why can't they see?

Why cant they see,

how hard I try?

They tell me

"You need to be stronger"

Why cant they see

That their words hurt me?

I laugh and pretend I don't care

But words hurt me,

so there.

They call me the devil's spawn.

I know I'll never belong. 

But I'm not just a pawn.

I have feelings too,

deep inside

they hide.

You know why they're blue?

Because of people like you.


I used to rely on you too.

But you pushed that bond through.

So I now stand on the side.

Taking in more than most eyes.

How did I never see the world correctly before?
