Freak

Poem

By Janice PagePublished 5 years ago 1 min read

Everyone thinks that I’m a freak

I wish there were a way they could peek

Into a little thing I call my life

And realize all this pain and strife

They think they know me

They think they see

But what they don’t know

Is why I’ve sunk so low

It’s not because of what they say

I just want to find a way

It’s not because of what they do

I just wish they knew

Of everything that happened back then

Maybe they won’t be so harsh and send

All those hurtful words my way

Maybe that will happen someday

Maybe if they knew just why

Then I could stop living this lie

Stop searching for all the secrets you seek

Then you’ll realize, I’m not a freak.
