This is Unacceptable

“I say I’m fine but I really just need help. I say I'm just tired but no I just can't do this anymore. I say I already ate but  I'm starving. I tell you to go away but I actually want you to stay with me forever. I say I'm okay but I just don't want to be here anymore.”This is what I wrote for my ELA assignment. I was supposed to describe myself. I don't like it when people say “Are you okay” because I'm always going to answer with the same thing every time. “I'm Okay” and “I'm fine”. I'm not. I'm really not. I’ve lived on years and years where people ridiculed me because of my freckles and pomegranate colored hair. I laugh and say whatever and go home and cry in a corner. I pretend what people say don't affect me but it does have a great impact on me.
