Scares they are on my soul,
Cruel words were spoken to me.
Never ever desirving was I,
For called all of these mean words.
A Bitch, Slut, & Whore called,
Just for wearing blue finger nail polish.
Told I should just go stand on the street corner,
For everyone to see the looser that I am.
As well as become in their eye's,
While trying to just be myself.
Find out whom I really am,
For only 11 year's old I was then.
Not knowing where to go,
Nor even what to do.
Writing & Singing were both of my dreams,
No one telling me where to go nor where to start.
Whom to reach out to not being alone,
Figuring out how to be what I wanna be.
Instead of folling my dreams,
I fall down on my face, get up again.
If they laugh at me i just ignore then,
Walk away but never stop believing.
In your self & what you can do,
So that you do not miss your chance in life.
At being what & who you really wanna be,
Instead reach out into the stars.
Being excatly what and whom,
You really are or wanna be.
Do not let it be too late,
As for me it already is.
For all grown up I am now,
Still feeling all of this pain.
Way deep down inside my soul,
Wishing I could just let my dreams go.
In order to move forward,
Forever alone I am and feel !

Wow. That was deeply sorrowful. Definitely affecting and full of emotion. There were some typos that could be fixed, but all in all you did a great job with the prompt and you did what was asked...make the reader feel something.
Thanks for entering and best of luck!

You are never alone. You will always have me. You snuck this one in on me. You have been through so much in your life time. I wish I could take your pain away. Good luck in the contest. ~~Iridessa~~
