Excuse Me

When I tried and cried and meant what I said When I didnt cause a stir and was silently lead When I swallowed my own hurt my own rage When the issue wasnt over yet I still let you turn the page. Did anyone stop to think what it made me feel Does anyone even realize that im alive and breathing and real When my feelings are crushed or im pushed aside When your stories are uncovered and its apparent you lied When I hear the whispers or rumors of whispers Things that were said the message couldnt be crisper Am I suppose to keep acting like nothing happened I can hear the snickers the complaining I can hear them laughin When my day isnt bright blue with white fluffy clouds When being me isnt even allowed When the things you need in life are stripped because you disagree How the hell does that say you love me Please help me understand help me believe or please just let me be I am so tired from trying to be someone other than me
