why me

I'm not brilliant

I'm kind of dumb

most of the time

I feel too much.

or I feel numb.

there's no in between.

I trip over uneven ground.

fall face first.

but what hurts the most?

are mean people.

with glaring eyes

they say the most,

I wish I were a ghost.

I hate being a host

for unwanted thoughts

the kind that won't leave

constantly, pouring mean words

over me

I shower day and night,

but I am never clean.

I step outside,

try and clear my mind.

I'm not brilliant.

I'm kind of dumb

why me?
