• Express

    Have you ever been afraid
    Of what people might do,
    If you looked different from the world
    And wanted to be you?

    You would be very nervous,
    Trying to convince yourself:
    “It does not matter what they say,
    Put your worries on a shelf.”

    And yet you cannot do it,
    No matter how hard you try.
    Because you see people laughing
    (Or trying to make you cry).

    Well you are not alone,
    This problem is worldwide.
    For people who want to express
    Must hide it on the inside.

    This problem can be found at school
    Especially at highs,
    For people there don’t give a care
    ‘Bout how you feel inside.

    But don’t give in to their critique,
    That will satisfy their goal.
    Keep your head up high, and walk away,
    Their glory you will have stole.
