Small town, Illinois

Small town and small minds = Little acceptance. (which everyone wants and sometimes deserves) So this is just kinda venting.

(when I say make me cut,down. Its meant as "break down" Not physically.) Enjoy?

-----------------------------------


I take a breath and walk on by
And somehow I catch your eye
I did nothing to deserve despises
But you kindly say some lies

For you feel the need in your gut
That words will slowly make me cut
down, so my lips do stay shut
While meekly I did strut

For it does sting that I'll admit
But you think that I'll submit
Under your fist I scream "quit!"
While you feel insults deem fit

instead..

I try and not start no wars
For I've learn from times before
That pain is nothing to adore
So I shrug it off and ignore

I step away; let out a sigh
Ignore the pain so I'll get by
Going on; I will try
To walk another day, another lie
