Surviv Or

A Surviv---or 

I know how it feels to be unwanted
ignored, made fun of and at times taunted
beat up, spit on, embarrassed and disgraced
abandoned betrayed and things thrown in my face
denied, discouraged, used, then abused
So before you say a word, think twice
'Cause I have nothing left to lose !

I've been disappointed, lied too
and falsely accused 
Tattled on, rattled, 'till
I was made to feel blue
disrespected, disregarded
and plan old DISSED it true
and I promise never ever to
do these things to you

I've been jaded and spaded
and without reason hated
picked-on, laughed at
despised and denied
walked on, pushed around
held in sheer contempt
made to feel alone
most every where I've went

It wasn't at all easy, to suffer all this crap
each time they beat me down
some how I made it back
So, NEVER feel alone
don't let them get to you
and don't become like them
and act the way they do 
just standup tall and strong
with a smile and with grace
and tell your friends and family
"Get The Hell Out Of My Face"

You Know, I never realized how much crap I've been through till I wrote this, LOL. I used to think I would do it all over again, but now, this has got me thinking twice.
