Stop Hiding

    • Stop Hiding

      I walk alone on this dark path
      Feeling all their hateful wrath
      I can feel their words sink into my mind
      Telling me I'm not one of their kind
      I was on the wrong side of unique
      This world, these people, give me no chance to speak
      Instead I'm forced to hide as I continue to grow weak
      But a fair chance is all I seek
      I feel like I'm locked in a cage
      Like a picture frame shattered by someone's violent rage
      But my heart is no treasure of gold
      Instead it seemes to be stone that is quite cold
      I will admit there is no innocence in me
      For god never wanted me to even be
      I am his monster without a beating heart
      His human with no place to start
      A mistake that was made a day too late
      But despite it all, this must be fate.
      The world throws upon me new challenges every day.
      And each path I take I shall always stray.
      'For there is more ways to avoid conflict than talking,' they say
      Hiding is better than being dead.
      At least that's what you had said.
      But why is it I must hide my whole life?
      Why am I so vulnerable to the blade of a knife?
      I'm done hiding in the shadows of this town.
      I'm coming out even if it means I'll be shot down.
      But I'm not close to perfect. I'm not close to sane. I'm not the one to worship. And I'm not the one to blame.
