The Way They....

The way they hate me
when i try and stop
racism
The way they snicker
and shun me because I'm
not as smart as them
but most of all the way
they turn to me, when
someone hurts them like
they hurt me

So when they turn to me they
expect me to stand up for them,
make my speechs on human rights
and philosophy loaded with praise
and disgust, but most of all i'm
just mocking them

The way you love to make me smile
when everyone else is making me out
to be a dounce
the way i love you back when the
world gives us both the cold shoulder.

This is a really sad poem Regina. Isn't it funny though that the people who hurt you the most always come to you for help when they need it? I'm happy for you that you found someone who understands what you are going through. People like this are gold.

This was a nice one regi, but kinda sad how people turn their back on you and then expect you to give a hoot when they are in trouble.............oh well.
