Why do people insult me,
Is it the looks,
I don't know

Why...
Why am I ignored,
Is it how I act,
Not sure why

Why...
Why do people laugh,
Is it because of the rumors,
I try to ignore it

Not sure how long,
How long I have to ignore it,
I want my life back,
Wanting to be left alone

Why...
Why can't I be left alone,
Is it fun to destroy me,
I find it degrading [comments] => 6 [counter] => 192 [topic] => 48 [informant] => jupiter [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )

I Never Got Made Fun Of As A Child , But Boy Am I Getting It Now...I Have Cancer And When I Go To Town People Looks, Stares And Begins To Laugh I've Asked My Self Why Are They Laughing@ Me Do I Look That Bad? I Can't Walk Out In My Yard Without Some Neightbors Older Kids Laughing@ Me ....You Got Me Stunded On This Question's. For I Have No Answer For Them...The Only Thing I Can Think Of Is There Cold Hearted And Very Disrespectful......Or They've Never Been Taught No Better .....Sorry That's Just How I See It...

When I was a little girl I had such low self esteem due to other children. You know I thought I was the ugliest, strangest looking kid in our subdivision. I became a loner to protect my sensitive inner self. Then when I got older and all of those people wanted to befriend me, I was trapped with remembering being a child. It hurts when people are cruel and if I could I would wipe it out. Your poem touched my heart. Hang in there, okay? Kie
