My Life
So I’m in this spotlight,
not a good one,
a bad one.
Every time I do something wrong,
its everywhere.
I feel like I’m in arena
and everyone is gathering to come watch the show called,
“My Life.”
There’s a line at my door every morning
with no admission charge.
I hear all of them whisper,
and say bad things about me.
Some don’t even know me,
they just follow the crowd.
I feel like everyone comes to sit
and watch every move I make until I make a mistake.
I feel like everyone sits there,
laughs,points fingers, and makes fun of me
until I run home to cry.
I feel like its what they all feed off of,
and what keeps them alive.
I don’t understand whats so amazing about my life
but it that keeps everyone so thrilled.
Everyone messes up,
but as soon as I do,
its a sin.
I never get cut some slack,
I always have a pile of drama stacked up on my desk,
its everywhere.
I feel like my life is a joke to everyone around me.
I feel like that if I wasn’t here,
no one would care.
I just want my life to be normal,
and not be the center of attention.
There has been days
where I’ve been on the verge of life and death.
I can’t handle everything said to me,
but I take it like a bullet every time,
and lets just say,
it kills me inside.
I wish people would put themselves in my shoes
and see what its like to be me for a day.
