Painful world

Barkman manzini

Free verse
Painful world
-
I never understood what keep quiet means ,
I grew up with bullies ages ago
Hoping I'll achieve my dreams as my peers fears me
But I couldn't understand that fear is not respect
I was a kid thinking that being a bully you gain respect
Hoping I'll run the street someday
Yet one day I'll be left alone with nothing but sorrowful tears
I resented this world thinking it was turning against me
Yet my granny was all I have
The past is tormenting me
Because of all the things I did
Forgive me my peers
