Why Me? (Free verse) by Tarquin De La Bog

Why must I, have this different coloured skin? It's always been hard To try to fit in. Why was it me, to be disfigured at birth? Leaving me With a sense of no worth. Why was it me, that daddy chose to beat? And physically love As his special treat. Why do only I, hear voices in my head? They whisper dark mutterings Fuck her, they said So I fucked a woman, in the park She didn't know me It was dark. Why was it me, that somebody saw? Running that night Back to my door. Why was it me, that the cops came to see? Asking awkward questions 'Was it you, nigger?' Maybe. Why was it me, that the cops beat to shit? Kick followed blow Hit after hit. Why is it me, lying in bed? Crippled for life Nearly dead. I've never had friends, what did I do? Shunned by society I am taboo.
