I watched as you were standing over my shoulder
Analyzing every move made, I cringed little colder
Holding back my tongue I made no noise heard
In my thoughts what a mouthful of word
Kept to myself I let it go even as you criticized
After a while I became numb and almost hypnotized
Sort of zombie like and unnerved by the ridicule
Instead of down I was finding strength my fuel
If I can overcome these feelings while being
Under a microscope is exactly what I'm seeing
Still I keep my mouth shut for fear for bad air
I sure don't want to go through that again there
In my mind I can't escape the words I want to say
How I'd merely ask for one to look the other way
Perhaps take a closer look at oneself rather
Maybe that would be better for one to gather
Inside myself I'm looking but I don't shed light
Maybe I should just come out with it I still might
Again I think well maybe I don't really mind at all
I feel I am going to make out alright even if I fall
To get wrapped up over the stares you give me
Will stop me before I have time to look and see
Surely I must not let this be for life is now
That's why even inside not heard will somehow
I have no answers to give for any of the judging
As for me and my spot I will not be budging
