So many mistakes so little I've done right It is an ongoing strugle I have to fight You judging me by just one glance You judging me without just 1 chance So many things go unseen Life can be cruel terrible and mean So many things that still remain I still have those days of endless pain You not knowing me, not knowing who Iam You being fake,just for looks and pretend You don't know me, and you think you do You dont know me, you don't have a clue Having to be the unoticed one It doesnt even matter, when its all said and done You laugh and stare You just dont care I have so much to deal with you just don't know This sadness is hidden it wont show My brother my sister both have a disability All you can do is laugh at them and me My grandma has cancer uncurable to mend Stop this laughing, I want it to end My life as a child,always so shy Stop this laughing, Im starting to cry My life as a child,so distant so sad My life as a child,so frustrated so mad Grown up and I still remain this way I want this judging to stop today Diagnosed with a sickness nothing i can do You just dont know me, and you think you do Going unnoticed without a glance Judging me on the outside,you never gave me a chance I have always been understanding of people who arent the same as me They are people, not retards why dont you just see Being told I was stupid,some thought I wouldnt make it I always said, "Don't worry I can take it." I try to be strong I try to belong But everything I do, turns out to be wrong Sometimes I think why was I given this life style Life presents problems, I just through them in a pile I try and lie to myself and say it is okay Still that pile of problems, haunts me today Laughter and teasing, stays through my mind Laughter and teasing, it's all so unkind I try and make my self better the way you want me But still went unnoticed,so unhappy Constint strugles I have you just dont know I hide my tears , they cannot show I don't see why you don't just like me for me I don't see why you don't like me for me, cause it's all I can be I'm sorry if that isn't good enough for you You don't know me, you may think you do Still struggles I'll have they wont disaper Life can be blury, and sometimes unclear All I can do is do my best So what If Iam different from the rest My life isn't easy, but yet it is blessed I cry my invisable tears I hide them for you to see I cry beacuse you don't understand me I cry beacuse It's all I can do I cry becuse of your laughing, I cry becuase of you Invisable tears, I don't want you to see Invisable tears,Life feels so emptiy |

This is a well written poem. I dont know all that much about poetry but i think that this reflects what you must be feeling pretty well. |

I know how this feels second hand. My brother is mentally challenged so I know how it is to see how people treat individuals like my bro on a daily basis. Anyhow, I enjoyed the poem. It's raw and I liked it. ![]() I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. |

This was a very sad poem, but I enjoyed it all the same. You may want to correct the spelling of "Invisible", and there were a few places were the rhyme scheme could be patched up a little bit. Like in the 5th stanza, it just kinda disappeared. I really liked the content though. Nicely done. |

This is so awfully sad. People can be so cruel and heartless. I thought you did a wonderful job expressing yourself here. Very powerful. You wouldn't worry about what people thought about you if you knew how seldom they did. |

I think everyone can relate to this. Everyone's felt like this before. It hit close to home a little for me. Awesome poem! ![]() Someone once taught me that it doesn't matter what other people think of you as long as you like yourself. That's what I live by. |
