Someone Out There

I wrote this in sadness. I was getting picked on really bad and nobody would help.

~Someone Out There~



I scream inside,
but nobody cares
all they see
are the patches and tears

So what if I have clothes
that aren't the best?
and why are you mean
and say my hair is a nest?

I long for a break,
just a time to be alone
to not have someone mock me
even if it's just over the phone

my parents ignore me
my sister's a pain
my brother's obnoxious
and I cry in the rain

is something wrong with me
or am I just fine?
what does your concious say
when you stand in line

to mock me, to hate
to tell me I'm wrong
well, all I can say
is this is my song

I cannot change
who I am inside
so when I reach out
and forget to hide

encourage
instead of judge
smile
instead of nudge

a kind word
is all it takes
to save someone
from several different fates

so next time you see me
as I'm sure you will
say something nice to me
You've got a heart to fill
