They say we're equal- they tell us we're free. But, they won't let us live differently! They tell us to change. They won't let us be! They think we're horrible and shouldn't be free! "Freak!" "Weirdo!" That's what they say to me- why can't I just be?!? I thought we are equal! I thought we are free!! Why can't we let eachother live differently??
Reason for writing:
I like to dress "differently" and die my hair many colors. Some people like it and others think I'm "weird." I don't understand why people have to be so judgemental all the time! Sometimes, that's just how it goes. Anyways...this poem is for anyone like me, who is "different."
