BIG GIRLS DON'T CRY.
<p><br/></p><p>Big girls don't cry.  </p><p>I sang loudly while tears drop from my eyes.  </p><p>I guess I've always been a little girl, unseen and unknown.  </p><p>My pain never to be spoken of.  </p><p>My thoughts never to be seen.  </p><p>My ideas shoved to the back of the classroom.  </p><p><br/></p><p><br/></p><p>You know, I was always comfortable with not being heard,  </p><p>With not being seen,  </p><p>With not being spoken of  </p><p>Because apparently I was too little.  </p><p>Apparently I was not good enough.  </p><p><br/></p><p><br/></p><p>But the pain was deep.  </p><p>My sorrows run bleak.  </p><p>The only future I dream of is a future  </p><p>Where darkness covers the face of the earth  </p><p>And I am nothing  </p><p>Because basically I have been nothing my whole life.  </p><p><br/></p><p><br/></p><p>It's hard to survive.  </p><p>It's hard to try to be something.  </p><p>It's hard to try to make someone happy  </p><p>Even if that person is not yourself.  </p><p><br/></p><p><br/></p><p>But human beings are always selfish.  </p><p>I want to be happy—  </p><p>Not the one making people happy.  </p><p>I want to be heard—  </p><p>Not the one holding people.  </p><p>I want to be heard—  </p><p>Not the one listening.  </p><p>I want to be spoken of—  </p><p>Not the one speaking about people.  </p><p><br/></p><p><br/></p><p>I guess I've always disappointed my mother.  </p><p>She wanted something more, but I'm not.  </p><p>I'm something less.  </p><p>She wanted nothing less than perfection,</p><p>But it seems like my mistakes and my flaw run deep.  </p><p><br/></p><p><br/></p><p>It's so hard.  </p><p>So once again I sing,  </p><p>Big girls don't cry,  </p><p>But I've never been a big girl.</p>
