Writing is the only way

Writing

Writing is the only way

I can think of coping

From what I have been through

Writing my feeling down is all I can do

 

If you ask me how I was doing

I would say “I’m fine”

That’s the only way I know of to cope

 

People don’t know what it’s like

To be someone like me

To be made fun of

Just because you’re a little slower then them

 

Other kids have the same problem’s as me

They don’t like to show it

Buy there hurting like me

 

That’s why there’s Special Olympics

You can be who you are

And, not get made fun of

Only if more kids knew about Special Olympics

Then they would not get made fun of

They could just be who God made them to be

 

Writing is the only way

I know how to cope

For if not

I might go crazy

And, that’s the end of that

Jswim: I think we all feel the same about writing. Writing our feelings is the best way to express the hurt, the pain, the sorrow, the anger, and all the other negative emotions. It's also a great outlet for the joy, the happiness, the successes and all the things that make us tingle inside. I'm glad you found HubPages. We're very lucky to have you here to share with the world what it's like to be you and how you feel.

Thank You. I started writing poems after I wote my 9/11 poem. I was looking at something I could do for 9/11 and found some poems. All the rest is history.

Writing is a real outlet for feeling, and you have plenty to say. I like your straightforward style: it's direct and uncluttered and touching. Thanks for sharing your work with us.

JSwim, there is no reason for anyone to treat you any different. We're all different from one another, one way or another. (WOW! That's alot of 'nothers', huh?) It makes me sad that some people are not willing to get to know someone based on pre-judgements. You sound like an amazing person that I would love to spend time with. I might not be able to keep up with you, though. Swimming takes alot of endurance. Sometimes, I'm kind of short on that.

I'm sorry that you have been hurt. Writing definitely helps! And you're talented in that department.

I noticed you like to read romance fiction. If you like humor along with it, I would suggest Lisa Wingate's books. Namely, "Talk of the Town". I laughed the whole way through it. Some of her other stuff is more romantic and less humor, but everything I've read of hers so far is terrific!

I am affiliated with Special Olympics and work with some of the kids on our local team. Bowling is my favorite. Of course, it's what most of the kids are involved in, but that could be because quite a few are wheelchair bound and don't do the swimming.

Anyway, I just wanted to say "hello" and tell you how excited I am to have "met" you!

Thank you for commenting. Being in the Special Olympics makes every kid feel better down the long run.
