An Issue
I have too many reasons
why my life should end.
I have absolutely no motivation
nothing like a friend.
If I could change one thing,
I would change the way we think
of peace and freedom
whether you are purple, black,
or pink.
We all deserve a chance,
and I am still waiting for mine.
If it doesn't come along soon,
I'll be all out of time.
This is what I feel,
every single day.
There is absolutely no light,
not one single ray.
I have tried so very hard,
to make my dreams come true,
no matter how hard I tried,
my anger grew and grew.
The way in which I feel,
in a couple of words,
is really quite simple,
I do not feel heard.
I have not felt much happiness,
for a very long time.
I am always under attack,
like living is a crime.
If you know the way I feel,
trust me and listen close.
Help is what you need,
a friend will help you most.
I have changed schools,
several times a year.
One time because of location,
the rest were out of fear.
