You May Break Me, but I Am Not Broken
I have been hurt
I have been made to feel nothing but your abuse
I have been treated as just some crappy T-shirt
I have been seen as not a person, but something to use
I have been harshly insulted
I have been found and beaten senselessly
I have been made to look like a shithead, a fucker, a pussy, a really retarded kid
I have been doing my academics and activities quite badly
I have been shoved in lockers and gotten dunked
I have been picked up and thrown from here or there
I have been so distracted from work, many tests I have flunked
I have been cut up, bruised, so nervous, it’s hard to bare
I have been seeing my family for assistance
I have been working out at my place
I have been having great persistence
I have been working hard at my own pace
I have been practicing on my concentration
I have been constantly studying
I have been progressing in my self-education
I have been loving learning
I have been seeing new people
I have been making friends that make life great
I have been not so socially feeble
I have been much more confident as of late
I have been getting stronger
I have been getting more assertive
I have been getting smarter
I have been getting more extrovertive
You may have thought that I would end up very weak and soft-spoken
You make break me, but I am not broken
