Trapped In My Body

Do you ever feel like you’re trapped in you’re body?
That this body isn’t really yours
Do you feel like it’s some one else’s?

That you want to be let out?
You want people to see you for who you are

I feel like this body is someone else’s
That when people are looking at me
They must be looking at the person behind me

The stares
The looks
They never get old
The heartache hurts the most

Some people say it’s my fault
Some people say I should change how I look
If it bothers me that much

That if I change my body then…I would feel better

But that would be saying “why don’t we please everyone”
People would want to be my friend
Because I would be fake like everyone else

That I would keep my mouth shut
My ears shut
My eyes shut
Come on think about it

I go to a school were looks are everything
Everywhere you look there are skinny people
You want to be like them so badly
Why cant I?

If you don’t look like everyone else
Then you wont be accepted
Why is this?

I want to be the first to change peoples minds!
But I know that wont happen

Looks arnt everything, you know!!
