His warm breath in my in my air
As he screamed like a banshee
And they all ganged up just to beat me down
And tell me what was wrong even though I already knew
STOP!!
Just shut up and leave me alone
I screamed back to shut them up
but I wasn't able to fight fire with fire
And when it was over they had brought me so low
I felt as if I was sinking forever into
a sea of my faults,regrets,and things scarring
my mind and body forever
But then I began to laugh
It just amused me because I made
a small mistake and suffered great consequenses
But people will always break me down
And I dont do anything for anyone
if I dont get back up
So I forgave and forgot
and smiled.

This isn't what I originally intended by the contest. I don't mean a real smile, I mean a smile that you give when you know it's easier than answering questions. Make sense?
Thank you anyway
