Kid with the paper bag face
Do I matter?
I speak but get no response,
They cut me off even though I was talking,
They tell me to do something even though I have plans,
I sit in silence and they wonder what is wrong,
I open up but they stab me as soon it is open,
They ask what is wrong even though they harmed me,
Do I matter?
No,
I do not.
