For I No Longer Can Bite My Tongue

I'm hurting can't you tell 

My heart hurts

Tell me you love me

My chest burns

Tell me you are proud

My eyes water

Let's laugh together

But you can't

you don't love me, you aren't proud

And you aren't happy.

But why is it that I take the blame when he should be shamed

For his actions that make you go insane

He disappointed you

He caused you pain

Then just went on with his day

Yet I was only born

But I was yelled at, locked up, and pushed away

For only breathing each day

You say it's his fault

Why you act this way

But can't you see we are nothing but different

He dropped school

While I used it as my tool

To break down society's walks

So I am not classified as a fool

Isn't life just hell

But you say no one can tell

Life is what you make of it

Then why can't I make it better
