Into the Heart
October 19, 2021
Look at me,
What do you see?
Do my eyes,
Reflect the past?
Regret and shame,
Within these eyes,
Sadness and loneliness,
Hidden in a smile.
Don’t be alarmed,
At what you see,
Life is cruel,
For people like me.
People who are different,
People who seem,
To always be lost in a dream.

I'm glad that at least one of us has found some peace with themselves, unfortunately I'm still trying to do that.
When I was growing up, I hated myself, sometimes desperately, because I was short and easily ignorable. I am still like that much of the time. But I am learning to accept that's who I am and I am special the way I am. I don't need to apologize for looking or thinking different.
This tells you about how some feel to be apart from the crowd because of their looks or the way they seem to act. Please Comment!
