Will this be the day I have to read to the class?<br />
the day I stutter and fall?<br />
will this be the day that my mask crumbles?<br />
the one I spent so long building up?<br />
memories of before run ramped in my head<br />
my confidence is shaken<br />
never to be restored,<br />
forever gone?<br />
<br />
I don't fear reading-<br />
I fear judgement.<br />
judgement of what they think.<br />
desperate to be excepted,<br />
afraid to be an outcast,<br />
<br />
I've spent so long trying to hide my secret,<br />
I've tried so hard to erase my tracks,<br />
but were ever go it follows me like a shadow.<br />
never gone,<br />
but not always seen.<br />
Not until I read though<br />
like the sun, it shows were it hides<br />
<br />
9 years,<br />
9 long treacherous years I've learned.<br />
I know the rules like the back of my hand.<br />
then I read once,<br />
and my achilles heal is revealed<br />
<br />
people treat me with different waves of emotions after that:<br />
sympathy, cause they feel sorry for what I have to bear<br />
disgust, like they are going to catch it and become "stupid" too<br />
disapproval, shaking of many heads as I walk by.<br />
<br />
I didn't ask for this,<br />
I don't see how its fair<br />
I work twice as hard, and I'm the "stupid" one<br />
I don't see how.<br />
why am I to blame.<br />
<br />
you won't become sick from me<br />
I promise, you won't<br />
don't be afraid.<br />
I'm not disabled because of it either<br />
I just think another way<br />
outside the box you could say<br />
<br />
you took the highway in education,<br />
I took the senic route<br />
we still got to the same place,<br />
and in the same amount of time.<br />
I just happened to pick up a few things along the way<br />
Some tricks of the trade.<br />
But,I really don't understand<br />
what so wrong about being,<br />
Dyslexic?<br />
<br />

<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">our world is corrupt </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">everyone knows it.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">we suffocate this world </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">with greed</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">with power,</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">with egos and envy,</span></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">we walk the Earth </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">not a care in sight.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">always taking, </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">and never giving.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">as a child,</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">we grow up learning right from wrong</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">you think you can trust people,</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Then you fall out of favor, </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">next thing you know your thrown to the curb. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">not many people know it, but </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">life is a game,</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">like a hustler, we know how to win</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">why is it, that</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">we act like we accept things</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">it's always just a masquerade; </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">behind each mask is the truth </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">is the truth that bad? </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">are lies any better? </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">what happened to honesty?</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">if we continue this way we won't last much longer </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">we'll die from another World War,</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">probably started by miscommunication and false accusation </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">of course the war could be avoided if everyone just tamed their egos. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
So I <span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">propose that we come together. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Join as one </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Unit and fight </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Cause together we'll stand </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Hand in hand. </span></div>

one moment you're here<br />
the next,<br />
gone.<br />
<br />
Was it me?<br />
was it something I said?<br />
why couldn't we've had one more day?<br />
when you left you caused great pain.<br />
mother said to be strong<br />
said to put on a face for... her<br />
but how could after how you left<br />
I went to bed with the reassurance that you were fine<br />
Then I woke up to reality.<br />
That there would be no more memories.<br />
the family gathered by that day<br />
we comforted her as best we could.<br />
<br />
2 years a have passed and the pain has lessoned <br />
but not a day goes by that I don't think about you,<br />
we were connected more then anyone else<br />
we shared things no one else could.<br />
<br />
Where have you gone?<br />
one moment you're here<br />
the next,<br />

You think Michael Phelps is a swimmer?</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
Then you should see me, </div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
can you fly?</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
I can.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
Butterfly is me, my stroke - you see?</div>
</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
Free is easy nothing to impress,</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
but fly takes time to perfect.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
The Olympics are coming,</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
and they're calling my name:</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
to take the gold and bring Phelps to shame.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
22 metals? What you call that good,</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
give me a turn,</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
and you will see that in the end, </div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
I will be</div>

it's always there.<br />
look back in time,<br />
to long ago memories.<br />
do you see it?<br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Yellow</i>.<br />
<br />
It forms around the edges,<br />
like a faded shinny tint,<br />
it's the light that brightens those memories.<br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Yellow.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
What do you hear from yellow?<br />
is it the upbeat summer tunes,<br />
the ones that get stuck in your head,<br />
and play over, and over<br />
because it's always saying something.<br />
it's the soft melody's that bring you comfort on hard days.<br />
like a friend its there.<br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Yellow.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
Have you noticed the color yellow?<br />
it is very distinct.<br />
<br />
it has a this sweet taste,<br />
that keeps you coming back to it,<br />
like a child and a cookie jar- never able to quiet stop.<br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Yellow</i>.<br />
<br />
Like a solider, Yellow protects you from all that's bad.<br />
shields you away from all harm,<br />
and disposes of all threatening things.<br />
<br />
<i>Yellow.</i><br />
<br />
Yellow is Happiness,<br />
and all that is good,<br />
it is never to be forgotten<br />
and never to be gone.<br />
