I am poem- Melinda- Speak

I am isolated and scared

I wonder if I will ever be treated like a normal person again

I hear all the things people at school whisper about me

I see Andy when I don't want to see him

I want people to believe me about Andy

I am isolated and scared

I pretend to not care about all the things people say

I feel like I am starting to rebuild myself

I touch the linoleum block

I worry this may happen again

I cry when I think about what Andy did to me

I am isolated and scared

I understand that I can't change what happened

I say not a whole lot

I dream of getting past this

I try to move on

I hope people believe me

I am isolated and scared
