Dejection

Walking that stage
sea of faces
Gonna tell that story for that competition
She was not afraid


It was her turn
She took her place
She started

She was stopped
She saw head turning
She heard loud rumbles



Boo boo
Boo boo
Get her off that stage!!
Get her off that stage
We don't like the way she speaks
Its funny
Its awful
who does she think she is???


Tears came running
She felt humiliated
She felt embarassed
She went running off that stage
She went off crying in the bathroom
Sobbing,
like she has never sobbed before
Tho lord knows she has cried her tears


She held on tight
what else was she suppose to do
She cried
Held out
Hurt yeah
but marched on.......
