Know Not: Backstabber Poem by The Dreamers Movement

Know Not: Backstabber



You know I have always found it ironic that most of the time when I am trying to tell people how I feel they always seem to shrink away assuming that I might explode get my guts all over their ‘expensive’ suites and dresses well what if I did explode with anger and rage what if I finally admitted what I truly feel would people still look at me the same or would they shake their heads in shame thinking about what I ‘could have been’ in their eyes why should I try and prove myself to people who don’t really care about me people in this world always care about you when you cater to their needs but most of the time they never return the favor I have had people backstab me just so they could meet the ‘higher ups’ my family has been through hell and back all because these people are such self-serving bigots who can’t see past their own egos well I say screw you people who don’t see value in the ‘little people’ surrounding you you are useless to me anyways I don’t need the approval that you think you need to give me I am already comfortable in my own skin I don’t need you to tell me who to be where to walk and how to talk so take your little bubble of ‘perfection’ and leave me be I don’t need your false sense of security and outright lies so long fair strangers go try and brainwash someone else ‘cause this girl is going to stand on her own two feet supported by her Father.
