Hushed Life

so the ppl here took of the original version, so i'll modify it a bit...

She said “Write a piece on you,
Make it lively, make it true,"
So much drama to write a play,
So much conflict to write prose
I guess fiction is my best bet,
My true story wouldn't be accepted.
Falling in love, falling out of love,
Facing demons, leaving angels,
Friends made, friends lost.
My world, so many memories make it,
Most too harsh to submit in this class, therefore,
I'll keep it to myself.

I have to hold my tongue, censor what I write,
Before I write something against the books and get suspended,
In this prestigious school.
Should I write that I'm outspoken, I love to say what's on my mind,
And how I can't express my views in a class where opinions are important
I'll change topic and say,
Every night since he died I dreamt of him,
I'll say even though he treated me like shit I love him and I miss him so bad,
Every night since he's been gone.
Would it be appropriate to say I've fallen in love twice,
Got hurt several times,
Found someone I fell in love with after knowing him for a few days?
I'll write I now believe in love at first sight.
No, none would be accepted.
I'll keep it to myself.

I'm tired hiding the exciting parts of my life from everyone.
It's unfortunate that the most exciting goes hand in hand with the worst.
I want to say my life, what made me,
Without
Limits
Censors
So, now I'll say the truth, no glitz and glamour
The real things that’s supposed to be
Hushed.
It may not be what you want to read,
But I'm not keeping it to myself.

I think I'll say I'm not a good leader as you think
I hate my responsibilities
I'll say
I had to grow up at 8
My mom turned me into a b!t(h at 10
Did drugs at 12
F***ed at 14
Changed at 16
I'll write about how I tried to help a cocaine addict live a normal life,
I'll even say I've lied and cheated to survive.
And I tried
so
hard
To change
And I love me the way I am with all my
FlAwS
Finally I'll say,
I might possibly hate Literature,
I wish I chose Art
