They call me 'Fatty'

And name me Patty

I want to go home

 

And not be alone

They joke and they jest

Why can't I be my best

 

I look in the mirror

And the fat becomes clearer

I hate school

 

Because the boys are so cruel

They call me names

Like a cruel gun that aims

 

At my heart

And tears me apart

&quot;You know you&rsquo;re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is &ndash; wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you&rsquo;re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself.&quot;
