Ping Pong

Nevaeh.k.Thompson 2009 (Bahamas)

Rope around my throat,
The pressure is building up,
A person on display for a laughing crowd,
He makes me feel wanted,
He makes me feel unworthy,
Yet he doesn't know
Yet he brushes it off,
He ignores me like I am invisible,
He plays me like a ping pong ball,
He passes me around and hits me with hard blows,
For I am a ping pong ball ,
For I am nothing but a useless ball,
In a man's game

About this poem

I made this poem a few weeks ago about a guy I liked in school which is probably common, But its about a person liking someone(obviously) and the person playing with them obviously the person is me and sometimes I feel like a ping pong ball.
