I Just Can'T Win

Will I ever get it right You shove it all in my face All day and all night My mistakes I can't erase Up is down Black is white I'm not allowed to frown I'm not allowed to fight I slip I fall I trip I crawl I try so hard Only to fall flat My body is scarred From when the blood spat We've had this chat I have to begin again I feel like a rat I just can't win *Written on May 7, 2012 by Lily Mayfield*
