Just Me
My head can be an awful thing,
screaming hate into my mind,
It is not me,
it is my family who can never be kind.
Why did they make such a horrible name?
My heart was hurt, filled with a burning flame.
I was mocked and ostracized,
My family left me helpless and traumatized.
I go home and think about what they have said to me,
It rings in my ear like the buzz of a bee.
I should change so they would leave me alone,
The way I am is the only thing I've ever known.
I can change who I am for them,
but they having nothing in their brain stem.
Trying to change to be normal,
Maybe I just wanna be abnormal.
