Men?

You touch me.
You stare at me.
You think I'm your private property.
I'm supposed to like that?
In childhood, you teased me.
You told me I was weak.
That no boy will ever like me if I stay a geek.
And I'm supposed to take that?
Your opinions oblique.
Me caring; at its peak
Me silenced; I still speak
You're in the shadows, where you creep.

If it’s my point of view it doesn’t mean I’m generalizing all men. Notice there’s a question mark, it’s about some. Write about that yourself maybe.
