Not Tell Me Poem by Jessie Li here

They act like I didn't hear
the words they just let slip
from their lips
They pretend that I don't know
that which I didn't know before
They keep their secrets
while I cry my self to sleep
at night
They think nothing's wrong
with me
It's not all my fault
but I feel as though it is
I feel my life ripped away
Because of this selfish
life I can't control
It's hard for me to turn to
the one
who'll look at life like this
I stare at life and everything as
just another glass almost full
but still missing a part
so it feel almost like it's
empty
I need to change and think
of everything I need to be
I need to do
Become a little less selfish
Grow a little kindness
They will see only a little
difference
but they'll think
that I still don't know
their secret
