Everyone wants me to be everything they've ever wanted me to be. <br />Yet, they don't understand that I'm only one man, I'm gonna need help. <br />I've always been the type of person who, I never like to see anyone <br />disappointed, especially if I know it's probably my fault, or if I could've <br />avoided them being upset. It's like I have nowhere to turn now. <br />Everyone's taking control of me. Seems like the world's got a role for <br />me. Even though on the outside, I smile, laugh, joke, and act crazy <br />with everyone, I hide behind a mask. I feel like a mirror, everyone sees <br />a bit of themselves in me, but no one thinks of asking me what I think, <br />no one ever takes the time to see to understand the real me the man <br />behind the mask. I feel invisible. Even when I say 'Hello world, this is <br />me! ! ' No one hears me. I try to remember that I am above those who <br />hate me, and talk about me, and abuse me, because I know that there <br />ignorance has become greater than who they have become. Even as I <br />keep that in mind, and my sinful human body still feels emotional Despair<br /><br />Jamal Brown<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/great-expectations-14/
