Why Can'T I Be Me? Poem by Cleo A. Fletcher

Why do I have to do everything?
Why do I have to be the one?
Why am I the responsible persone?
Why me?

Why does everyone dump on me?
Why doesn't anybody ask how I am?
Why doesn't anyone care?
Why me?

Why am I the one everyone talks to?
Why am I supposed to be cheerful?
Why am I supposed to be strong?
Why me?

Why am I not allowed to be weak?
Why am I not allowed to be angry?
Why can't I be alone for once?
Why me?

Why am I so different?
Why am I so weird?
Why do I have to be everyone else?
Why me?

Why can't I be blind so I can't hear?
Deaf, so I can't see?
Why can't I be normal?
Why can't I be me?
