What's in a face?      (Based On A True Story About Me) Have you ever had a group full of people just beat you down with words? Look at you and tease you for every inch of you're being? Have you ever been told something so much to the point  where You start to believe every word? Find yourself being afraid and insecure, I know what it's like, Trust me i've been there for all the sixteen years of my life i've had to struggle, The purpose of me living is like a big puzzle that I can't seem to piece together, I just wish that I can complete my purpose here on earth and then die, I've lost my own identity trying to satisfy other people who am I, I use a different name but still they see the same face, Would they know who I am if I wear a mask on my face? No, but after i'm gone they'd still talk about me. *** (tears streaming down my face right now) No one knows all the things i've went through my aunt  burnt my face with an iron when I was in second grade. I used to come home everyday crying because they'd call me scarface three years of crying endless tears but now that scar is gone and the other scar is just being who and what I am!*** Written By: Cannetha Smalls A.k.a lil sexy Written December 31st, 2001 © on Dec 31 2001 04:20 AM PST   0 • 18 • 1
