they killed me


i was never good enough

never measured up well

never got up quickly enough

when i fell


they killed me


i was never smart enough

couldn't participate

when i thought i was early

i was always late


they killed me


i wasn't pretty enough

never had the good hair

couldn't buy the expensive clothes

was never that aware


they killed me


they put the gun in my mouth

they pulled the trigger

they watched in silence

they called me ......


they killed me
