You think you're so cool, you think you have what it takes? You get to know my favorite color, what I in general like, don't like.
You think it's funny to tease or mock me? Wow, so original. Go ahead.
Why would I ever suspect it? It's not like I have any guards up.
It's not like I already know what it's like to feel misunderstood, to be mentally, and emotionally shoved into the hard ground.
It's not like I was ever replaced by some stupid animal, that got all the love and care that I so desperately craved.
It's not like I've had my heart broken, trust shattered to pieces.
It's not like if I ever wanted to get along or get something remotely seen as affection, I had to act like the perfect angel.
It's not like I was ever told I was lucky to be here, or that I was just some dumb bratty kid.
It's not like I was left to entertain myself everyday with no purpose.
It's not like I had to know how to take any kind of blame that was pushed on me.
It's not like I had to run away and hide when someone was annoyed at me for simply asking if they could do something with me.
It's not like I've ever hurt myself in a desperate action to try and communicate to others that I was in pain.
It's not like nobody noticed.
If you think you can hurt me, if you think you can break me, more than I've already been broken?
Heh, you're pathetic.
Lately I've been stuck between 'shoving forward', and 'running away'.
It's hard to explain, but but most of how I feel about things, people and certain animals, started when I was very young. Sometimes, people have made me feel this way, they think it's funny to tease others just because something bothers them. I dunno if this will inspire anything at all, but I'm trying to fight.
If the other party had just a few days in your head, you know what? They would break on the first day.

Anyways, here's to all the people that have been put down in their lives, who can hear just fine others mocking them behind their backs. Here's to all the adults trying hard to teach kids better, before they learn what I did: Keep a mask on.
