Switch Up The Roles

Wish I could switch up the roles
Tied of being the victim
Wish someone else knew how it felt just to be in my shoes
Try on my life, just for size
Suffer my pains
Cry all of my tears
While I'm free of the sorrow
Free of the pain
Free of the lies
Finally have beaten the game
Just finding a place just to rest my head
Finally earned a little breathing room

Switch up the roles
Never knew, how life was
Till I tried on the shoes
Of someone else
They had it worse off then me
Switch up the roles
I'm not the victim here
Never been raped
Never been beat
Never been happy

Compared to the others I'm normal
I look in mirror
Seeing the reflections of those
Who are the victims
Wish I could switch up the roles
Just so they wouldn't have to suffer no more

Author notes

For just when you think things are bad there are far more worse things that could happen and everyone, including myself lose sight of that.

In a list

    This reminds me of that song by Ciara "Like A Boy" I love that song. I think that you did a great job on writing this poem.

    Wonderful! My little vixen is growing up before my eyes! You should see the tears streaming... well, not really, but it is still wonderful. The greatest gift is an irreverent sense of humor. Don't take yourself too seriously, for there are much worse places to be then where you are!!!!! Three more bunnies!!!
