I may seem quiet
I may seem small
But you don't know me at all

I am brave
I am not afraid to show what I crave

I cry because I believe I should have no life
your words fill me with a never ending strife

I am teased
I am judged
Never will I hold a grudge

Never given a thought
Yet people think of me as someone I am not

Stuck in this cage
Writing on a simple page

I need to be free
So that people will finally see
What it's like to be me
