I too hurt

Arinicole

Im hurt, im torn 

Sitting in this room thinking about the actions I gloom

I cry, 

I cry when I think about the pain I caused

The fear within my family for my sins

 

For I am a teenager, only 17 

Boy I think the world is against me

That teacher was out to get me

My dad doesnt want to let me free

 

Why is he so strict

Why cant i wear this or that

Does it matter if he thinks im skinny or fat

 

She just called me a whore

All I did was talk to this boy on the way to the store 

Does she know I was hurting from what my dad said before

 

No one knows

They just loathe 

I too hurt, just like a livin thing with blood and lungs to breathe 

I am only human but no one seems to see
