You Couldn'T Handle

What if I showed you Could you even process The truth you would chew My life you would try to bless I would show you in pirvacy You would scream it to the population My tears I will choke silently While I stand in humiliation Why am I different You can't handle the truth You are just ignorant My life you don't need to sleuth I do what I want I live my own life Why do you taunt I'm holding a knife Why did you fight My sadness grew I'm leaving tonight I'm too much for you *Written on April 21, 2012*
