My Dark Friend-A Book Of Poems

In The Way

When will they learn,

I can't speak in front of a crowd

When will they see,

The hatred that grows in me

It's only a matter of time,

I'll have to do it again

I'm so very sick of,

The stares

I have to show them,

Someone who isn't me.

There's something in the way,

There's always something blocking me

Someone who won't let me through.
