Everyone thought that I had nothing to give. Nobody had high hopes for me to grow up and live. I have to fight for everything that I get. I've said it before, there's no rest for the wicked. Viewed as a stupid kid. But I was much more than this. I was different. I wasn't who they projected me to be. I wasn't going to be another statistic of society. I wasn't going to live by their rules. I had no intention on taking any abuse. I wasn't the person that everyone hoped I'd be. I was never going to lose myself over other people's opinions of me. They didn't want me to leave. They just didn't want me to succeed. They wanted prosper off of my energy. They wanted to say evil things. Lies, gossip and tearing me down behind the scenes. Yeah, I know it's hard to believe. But I'm not one to deceive. I'm telling you, all those things you heard of me, are just character slander recieved. I never wanted to be a part of that scene. They didn't want me on their team. And I was okay with walking. But why did they have to keep on talking? Making up things that weren't true. co signing on each other's fabrications and untruths. The Devil will use you, too. Falsehood and prevarication are evil tools. All while I was just trying to survive in a world that was set up for me to watch me die, then sit around and speculate about the whys. I stopped letting out cries. I went silent and I'll tell you why. I wouldn't give them the satisfaction of one of my salty tears. I wasn't going to share my fears, just so they could use it against me for years. I had no choice but to provide a safe place for myself and the child inside. Now the limb can break. I've learned from my mistakes. I can fly on my own. I don't need something to hold. I might be a hyper independent tom boy, but I'm not to be played with like some toy. You might not like the new me. The one who tells it like it should be. The one who removes herself from the wrong rooms quietly. The one who doesn't talk but sees. They underestimated me, seriously.
