Poem Poem by Margret Brown

It's a sick world
I dont know what I'm writing
Shame fills my paper
What Is shame
Shame is I'm not sure

I need space
Is life a race
Tie my shoe lace
They call me a brat

Am I a cat
Or a rat
So lowly
I don't know

I'm chasing a chase that doesn't exist
They should laugh
Noone even knew I begin

I need to write
But I'm scared
So scared
Worried

I feel shame all over me
I feel sick
Whats my trick
I need to write

I'm scared to write to feel lonely
To worry about who I am
Because sadness takes over
But I need to write

I have Shame I don't know why
How can I write
Where
Should I

Who will love me
Oh thats long over
Worry about my future
Not seeing an entire picture

Putting on a show
Wherever I go
Is it sad if I look low
Fakeness sets in

Fakeness takes over
It takes full control
Complete control
I can't move

Then I wonder why
What matters do we have a say
I need to write
I might loose this fight

People will laugh at me
They will laugh and laugh
Its ok
I can be a scorn

I feel torn
I'm scared to be
What ugliness will come out of me
Can I

Should I
We're afraid of what's hiding
I'm a monster
