How To Escape The Ones That Hold You Down

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

She no longer
Could see the joy the child would
But squinted and pushed harder
For the goal impossible to achieve.

Dozens of eyes
Demanded more than she could handle
And it didn't take long
For them to brake her dreams.

She no longer
Wanted to even try
For they always pulled her down
And dragged her through the dirt.

Dozens of eyes
But why did she care
When no matter how hard she tried
They made sure she'd always fail?

She no longer
Let them hold her down
While they make her just like them
And it wasn't long, before she stood again.
