Dear Nobody

Can you try and wonder what its like to be me?
Judged, rejected, and denied of sanity.
Could you try and wonder what it feels like to be me?
swollen cuts, stinging so deep..
Do you ever wonder what its like in my head?
Constantly wishing you were dead, dead, dead.
Have you ever wondered what its like beneath my skin?
One hundred percent effort, but youll never win.
Can you even fathom the wickedness within?
or maybe the desire to sin, sin, sin.
Could you even imagine the violence inside?
and the burning hate reflected through my eyes?
Do you ever pretend what you would do, if you were me and I was you?
Have you ever tried to be like me for a day, and bite your tongue til it bleeds as a 
mean to watch what you say?
Can you handle the difficulty in being soulless and cold?
Could you stand the pressure or would you fold?
Try to be me for a day and maybe you'll see why I am this way.

yes. these words are familure to me. i've spoken them long ago. but i had learned to escape them. not by judging my self as i think others would judge me. but as how God see's me. what is he making me besides a good poet. T. S.
