Silence Hidden In Words

¨Annabelle, I never told you..

But I'm secretly scared.

Each and everyday that goes by,

I'm not sure if I have felt entirely safe being here at this school.

I'm still constantly harassed by the other kids.

And the teachers are no help either.

It's such a frustrating feeling to feel like..

your never enough for anyone.

That you just need to change,

to feel like you're enough.

Even if I was to change everything about me..

from my looks, from the way I speak..

I wouldn't be gaining anything.

I would just a lose a part of myself,

pretending to be something for them.

And at the end of the day, they don't care.

They'll like me for a short period of time..

and eventually forget me anyways..

So what's the hope?

What's the point of staying?

I've grown far too tired for all of it.

And I fear that one day I won't be able to write to you anymore.¨
