I can't change & you won't accept.

Posted Jul 26, 2013 · 19 lines · 3 critiques

Who am I?
Do you know?
I stopped being her,
a long time ago.

I am a lie.
A disgrace if you knew.
I have to stay silent,
keep my love from you.

I chose wrong,
I can just change.
It's a phase in the end,
a high school play.

But, It's not and I can't stop.
How I feel has nothing to do

Read the rest of the poem Show less

with what the world brought.
Religion can't fix me, this isn't taught.

I can't believe in your God.
Your laws and your way.
It's not me, but you'll never know me.

on Old News from @Race_9togo
"Good poem, but lose that poetic "oh" in the 2nd line - its cheesy - move the question mark from line 9 to line 10, and add the word "to" to the beginning of line 10. A good exercise for overcoming writer's block: Pick a…"
