DESPERATE

I need to move and the move depends on me

I need to choose and the choice looks at me

My stomach kills me, for i do not agree with me

The pain i feel reflects from within me

For the body is currently speaking to me

On things that are inside me

Those stuck and yet want to come out for me

I need to move

This place is not cool

All i feel is some people who are cruel

And stupid too

For they know not what they do

I need to move,

Why does my heart tremble like a fool

The move is my own `tool

To move away from these dudes

Who uses me for their own good

Not caring that I know what i do

I wake up and have to talk to me

Tell myself that i shouldn’t be mad at me

For the time am wasting everyday as they speak to me

Teaching me to do things I always do for me

Asking questions considered stupid for me

Just to look great on him that is against me

I am desperate for my freedom

Desperate for the times alone

I am desperate and scared to go out on my own

But too desperate, staying here will be a suicide of my own
