Life..

No one knows what lays beneath or what it is I can be There is an identity below that you can't see I contain a series of layers you don't know exist I am not an ordianry kid, I dont fit on a list Struggles I've gone through are not one of a kind But not knowing what to do almost losing my mind Different because these obstacles I have conquered Though my life for the most part has been full of torture Being bragged about doesnt always feel so good Your parents don't always treat you the way they should Being put down and being told you never could And every time you'd cry yourself to sleep cuz you were down Felt the world take over you and wanting to drown When love hurt like a need under your skin All you could do is cry because of the pain Being surrounded by every one and feeling the lonelyest peron on earth That when everything seemed to fall you feel your biggest mistake is birth The thoughts that roam my head have been thought of before But not from me not from one with another identity When will I feel safe? From the world full of hurt? When will I stop crying? Will it be the day I stop trying? Im trying to survive the struggles life lays ahead of you Not having one to tell you what to do Let me slowly think of the words that I will last say While I wait for my final day
