Voice
I just want to be heard
I want to be seen but that won't happen
My mother won't let me be
My father doesn't think there's anything wrong with me
But I know something is
I want to leave
I want to get out
I want to be me
But how can I be me when everybody won't let me be
Just a bunch of hypocrites
Always saying that I cane myself but then condemn me for doing so
I can't stand this place!
There has to be a better place for me
A place where I belong, where I don't have to pretender be upset or feel unloved
But I can never have that it's all in my head
This place is not where I belong, this is a place that keeps me chained like a dog on punishment.
How am I ever suppose to be free if I can't ever love the people I want to love, feel the joy that I want to feel, feel the freedom of independence.
I won't but I will try because this is my life, my world and nobody will ever control that.
Nobody.
