I find myself lost
in a room with no color
I look around
and all I see
is a line of strangers
staring back at me
Walking on through
trying to find my way out
I notice all these people
are lost beyond doubt
Just like me.
I stumble around
not looking back
today is the day
I AM NEVER looking back
This is a poem I wrote a few weeks ago when I tried to hold a conversation with a few adults, who wouldn't listen to me because they thought I had nothing interesting to say, and when I asked them why they said and I quote "BECAUSE YOU ARE ONLY A CHILD AND COULDN'T POSSIBLY HOLD AN INTELLECTUAL, AND INTERESTING CONVERSATION."
Boy was I pissed, and I think what I told them made them think that you can't judge a person's Intelect by their age.
Hope you enjoy.
I don't want to be JUST a person who lives everyday
Who walks through the grounds where NOONE knows my name
I want my opinion to be voiced so here's what I have to say
The world can be cruel but you HAVE to be strong
Even when it brings you to your knees you have to live on
You can't change who you are, and make things go wrong
You can't choose who your family is or the size of your shoes
But you can choose who your friends are and how you lead your life
You can't fight for everyone else but you can fight for YOU
You can't live and just leave but you can live AND believe
Believe there is someone out there or there is something for you,
You do have a purpose, it's just below the surface
When you get to that point in life, you WILL know what to do
