Smiling Faces (Your Kind)

Some kind of monologue-thingy I made earlier today..

Look, I know your kind when I see it: the eyes, the looks, the way you speak--you're all the same. You guys hurt people in ways no one can imagine. Your words kill people on the inside, and you know what the worst part is? You don't even regret it. What you say, your words, echo through their minds. What you say to them. They start to believe it, eventually, but those are only the strong ones. You know, not everyone is as strong as they seem. I mean, look at me. I stand up for what I believe in proudly, but am I really strong? Brave? No. I'm really not. I've been chewed up and spit out, pushed around, teased, picked on, kicked, punched. No one even knows. No one would believe me if I told them. I act so happy, so no one will ask questions. I learned to hide the pain--the anger--and practiced smiling in the mirror. Not all smiling faces are happy. You should know how I got this way; it was your kind who did this to me. Now, go sit in the corner and think about what you've done.

Author's Note

I feel small--small font. I hope you get the message here. No one should feel like this. No one should believe what THEY say. I hope you liked this. I actually do.. Review please.

I liked you reading your thoughts on this matter. We definitely need people to speak up when people are pushing them down. We also need to stop judging others and making them feel degraded and worthless, because no one is worthless. I'm glad you put this out there Willa because people need to read and see that this is an issue out there. I hope you can find the strength to push past the pain and keep writing. Writing helps you through those tough emotions and keeps you going, at least it does for me. Thank you for sharing this one!
