I am exactly what they made me and nothing more or less I've become what they told me and now I have no rest I have conformed into someone that I do not love But atleast people talk to me I'm not alone anymore I am exactly as they wished I'm who they molded me to be All they had to do was laugh and the transformation was complete "A child can bounce back" Or atleast that is what they say So why does what they said Affect me still today? I am nothing but a character in someone else's play It's pathetic and I regret it Yet it's whom I'm doomed to stay
