I'm A Furry. (May be sad.)
« on: April 25, 2012, 06:31:03 pm »
Just a little poem I wrote in English class I got bored so I wrote this.

I'm a furry.
I'm not ashamed to say.
People are mean to me.
They harass me, teas me, and bark at me.
It doesn't hurt me on the out side.
But eats me up on the inside.
They make me go home and feel like trash.
They make me cry.
I never comment on what they wear, say, or do.
Why should they comment on what I wear?
I keep all my comments about them to myself.
They don't, they're words hurt me.
I don't want to go to school much any more, I wan't to avoid them.
I am now sitting here crying, I don't understand why I get teased.
I don't understand why people fear the "un known."
Furries aren't "un known", most of us are good people.
We just don't like to be teased... no one likes to get teased.
When I wear my tail in public, I get good and bad comments, stares, smirks.
When people come up to me and say: "Your so stupid because you wear a tail!"
I say: "Hi, how are you?"
The look on there face is priceless.
When people look at me meanly, I smile.
But why do I get all upset over harassment at school?
I can put up with it when it's strangers.
But why is school the problem?
I thought school was suppose to be safe.
But I don't feel safe.
When do I get to say enough?
Enough of the harassment, teasing and being barked at?
I feel as though I'm unimportant in the world.
That people won't like me for who I am.
I want a safe haven.
A place where I feel safe.
Because I don't feel safe anywhere.
I'm a furry.
I'm not ashamed to say.
People are mean to me.
They harass me, teas me, and bark at me.
It doesn't hurt me on the out side.
But eats me up on the inside.

Thanks for reading.

Very true. But remember that school is temporary and you have friends to help you. People don't understand the pain they cause with just words. But remember they are just words and they'll feel the same way when they get ripped on.

Remember we are here to support you. And it is a very good poem.

Yeah, I'm proud of being a furry too, but I just really needed to get this out some how. Thanks for reading.

I was suggesting that maybe people shouldn't be telling everyone they're furries. It's a bit of a "guilty pleasure" of mine.

I'm ok with that, but hey, if you want to tell everyone you're a furry go ahead.

Really good poem, but im sorry that people tease you. Believe, despite my personal goal of being less violent, i would beat them down if i had the chance. actually, is your school in CA?
I'm just another teenage furry, though im not all that active in the fandom due to not wanting to associate myself with a fandom with such a bad rep. If anyone remembers me from a couple years ago when i first joined id like to formally apologize for you having to suffer that. im potatolumps on tumblr if you want to check out my blog or whatever, just know i dont often post anything furry related
