I'm a little hurt… Can you blame me?

By Isabelle

They gazed at me

'Neath lowered hoods

They frightened me

I understood

 

It was their land

Their precious brood

They growled at me

I understood

 

I was invader

They did what they could

They kept themselves safe

And I understood

 

I turned back to winter

I left that place

Back to my corner

My own little race

 

Several died out

They couldn't keep pace

Needed new additions

To our little race

 

Now THEY are invaders

I want to be sick

I've been rejected and torn up

And beaten and kicked

 

I've been thrown to the side

So that others could shine

They've finally stolen

THE ONE THING THAT WAS MINE!

 

So I'm DONE with these people

To hell with today!

It's honestly nothing but

Tomorrow's yesterday

 

I don't live in the present

It's been taken away

But God, who wants to live in

Any kind of yesterday?

 

And I'm tired of standing

The others just lay

Face first on the ground

And I'm RUNNING AWAY!

 

I'm sick of just moving

Along with the tide

I'm the lunkhead, the standby

I'm fries on the side

 

Its injustice, what's happened

That's all I will say

And I thought I might mention

My heart broke today.
