Here I Am

Here I am the freak
"That girl"
The class skipper
The “other” one when someone else has my name
The quiet one
The writer
The listener
That weirdo
The depressed girl
That goth girl
The emo child
The loner
The solitary worker
The geek or nerd
The zoned out one
The bad attitude
The intruder
The loser
The outcast
Invisible
Criticized
Here I am the freak
Here I am misunderstood
Here I am alone

...The excessively rasied heat.And im pretty sue i wouldn't have survived the third one either,cause it was totally like they beat me up silently at the corner while the teachers boast them on.Thats why i was also the one with "bad additude",cause i started defending myself.But coming the the U.A.E it definily changed,espeacially my image.Im just hoping the next school im heading to i wont be "The Outcast"<3 I know how much it hurts Boo,but remember soon they'll be working for you=)
