There’s something behind my eyes Something you can’t see Something no one understands I’m not picture perfect I’m not a sweet little innocent one I’m not as naïve as you seem to think I am I’ve seen death I’ve seen destruction I’ve seen pain Sometimes I dream about the end About not having to live with this past Not having to live alone in these feelings But then I realize how different things are now How much I’ve changed How hard I’ve worked to escape all that But no one realizes it No one knows what I’ve been through They think I’m average I’m not average Far from it I overcame great obstacles I am stronger than them But I am weak to them I want to be them I want my smile to be real I want my innocence to be intact I want to have hope for the world It’s too late for me though I’ve seen too much There’s no going back The world is an ugly place Pain and suffering are rampant And no one tries to fix it People complain about the world When they’ve never seen it But that’s all they do, complain I’m tired of watching people sit around Fight for what you believe in Stand up for your fellow humans I’m a hurt lost little girl Why did no one save me? How did I slip through the cracks? I had to save myself I had to deal with knowing the world is a terrible place No on stood up for me I am strong I changed, I saved myself I may be young, but I’m certainly not naïve |

wow... i love this. I can relate also, i have had to see the world and i have to agree, it is and most likely will always be a terrible place. No one seems to care anymore, they have no hope, and i dont think i have much nmore left. I am only 14, and i think that its sad that i have had to see this. I wish i could go back, and be innocent again, and not have seen all the horrible things i haev seen... but like you said, its too late. I want a relationship i can finally sink my teeth into.~ Alexander Sterling |
