I try each day
To keep my cool
While treated like
A child and fool
Reminding me
Of being grounded
No fun, no friends
Completely hounded
On the whim
Of ones deranged
Drunk in their power
They have changed
And taken over
Each thought and act
Of our lives
But it’s a fact
That really we
Can’t stay like this
We want to live
Not merely exist
