A/N: This is just something I wrote last year when we read TKAM in English. It rather sucks. Review it anyway!!!



Why I Hide

I see them scurry,

I see them play,

I long to go out,

Enjoy the day.

But deep down,

I know I cannot,

For fear of what is,

And what is not.

I won't join in,

A world like that,

Where it matters,

White or black.

If I took part,

I'd be ashamed,

To say I played,

The racism game.

No one will ever,

See my face,

I'll stay inside,

For that's my place.

No one will ever,

See the likes of me,

For my name is,

Boo Radley.
