You make fun of me though u don't know

How I hurt inside I just don't let it show

Through my pain and sorrow u still decide to laugh

Because u don't know about the horror in my past

I try to be hard I also try to be tough

So the stuff that u say doesn't hurt me as much

I tell myself that I don't care even though I do

Because I feel if u don't care than nothing can hurt you

When I try to express my pain it seems like nobody cares

That's why I keep a lot to myself though its a lot to bear

I try to talk to God but I feel too much guilt inside

I try and try and try but I just can't get past my pride

Now I feel all alone and curl up in my bed

And repeat over and over I wish that I was dead

This poem shows a little of what I'm going through

Its titled u don't know me but now I guess u do
