Why
9 January, 2001
Author: Victoria
Why am I here?
Why don't I belong?
Why is there fear?
Why can't I be strong?
Why am I this way?
Why can't I do better?
Why can't I make it through the day?
Why can't I earn my letter?
Why do they stare at me?
Why do they laugh?
Why aren't I pretty?
Why can't I do math?
Why do I let everyone down?
Why can I not sing?
Why at me do my parents frown?
Why are they so mean?
Why do they talk behind my back?
Why can't I dance?
Why do these things I lack?
Why don't I have fashionable pants?
Why can't we share?
Why aren't I smart?
Why don't they care?
Why don't they have heart?
Why? I ask myself everyday.
Why, am I this way?
