Misfit
I once thought I would fit in
but then they began to see the scars on my skin
I once thought I could be thin
but they told me that was an impossible win
I once thought I could run a mile
but they spit at that thought with a smile
I once thought I could win this fight
but then they told me I was worthless tonight
I once thought I was beautiful
but then they scoffed at that with hate plentiful
I once tried ending it all using this blade as my weapon of infliction
and they thought I was just seeking attention
They all laughed at me
so I know one thing
I’ll never be able to win
I’ll never blend with this crowd
I’ll always be the girl
in the corner hiding how much it hurts
I’ll always be a misfit
that is the simplicity of it
