Tearing it to Pieces

I don't know why people never take me seriously. Not at church, not at school, not at jobs, not with my friends, not even with my family. I don't understand. Why?

Is it because of my height? Because I'm female? Because of my age? Because of my personality?

Am I even sane?

I could just ponder on all night long wondering why this happens to me. No matter in what situation I am stuck in, no one ever believes a word I say. Even though I have been proven right multiple times, still, no one listens to me or accepts anything I say. People just simply believe I am an understated fact.

It's frustrating because I am open to so many things and people are just so close-minded to me. No one ever focuses on what I do or say.

And ultimately, it's saddening because I want to be taken seriously. I want people to respect me for who I am and listen to my opinions.

All my life I have felt invisible, but lately I have been truly feeling invisible because I'm just simply put aside.

I sometimes wonder if people think that what I say are just lies.
