I’m trying to do my best.
But my every accomplishment is put under such scrutiny.
Suddenly my best is not good enough.
They call me over-emotional and say I make a big deal out of nothing.
My tears are laced with frustration and fury.
Nobody takes me or my emotions seriously.
I’m just “attention-hungry” and apparently trying to be different.
I voiced my concerns and said I saw red flags.
In return, I was told that those were insignificant red flags.
I can’t even voice my opinion because of my age.
I’m screaming to be heard but no one’s listening.
I’ve been mending my fences again.
But that’s not good enough for them.
I’m given pats on the head like a dog.
My birthday was forgotten and no one seemed to care.
