This Is Me MAG
This is me.
My clothes, my thoughts,
my manner.
You can see that
maybe I'm not like
you, exactly, but
I am a person
I hurt, I think,
I feel.
Don't you think your
comments hurt me?
I know what you're
saying about me.
Don't pretend I
can't hear.
Don't you think
those withering glances
hurt me?
Don't pretend I can't see.
But I can't change
your mind. This is me, and you
must accept me like this, because
I won't change. This is me.
