Tattered and worn
They laugh at my scars
some beat me up
Life has been hard
Day after day
They throw their jeers
Hateful words brings me to tears
Yes it hurts what they say and do
The name calling
The beatings
They throw hatred and laugh
They dish out pain and torment
Yes I cry
Yes I shed tears
But
I never fight back
By doing so
I prove I'm better than they

Very Christian, Hindu, Budist, Taoist, very human. This happens to many I was not strong enough I fought back and the beatings stopped. Great write.
