Two~

We are not sad,
We are just broken.
We listen in class but,
We just can't focus.
We say we're not okay,
And they tell us that's bogus.
But those are the words,
That fucking broke us.
Tell me I am dumb,
Tell me I am lying.
Why can't you see,
The tears that we're crying?
Brush us off like the dirt on your porch,
Why should you care if we hurt?
We are just stupid little kids,
You don't need our opinions.
But when the world comes crashing down,
We will not be here to see it.
Take us lightly,
Like a joke.
Treat us roughly,
Till we choke.
We'll stop talking,
With our folks.
After all, you say it is a hoax.
One hundred and twenty nine suicides daily,
"You are not sick you are just crazy."
And to think yesterday we were just babies.
We did this to ourselves,
But it's you who made me.
