poetry time #3

not a fairy tale

bending,
as far as you can
disguising in strengh
hiding from despair.

forcing,
yourself in a shape
you cant seem to fit
but are willing to take.

bleeding,
from inside and out
cut off your toes
to fot in those shoes

but youre not a princess
in this fairy tale
so wake up and realize
that youll never be there

as good as the others
as far and as bold
cause what you dont realize
what theyve never told

is theyre just as scared
of difference,
of life,
of not fitting in,
of being left behind.
