of all things about myself
that I can't stand
like my hair
the shape of my nose
my body structure
and my uneasy feelings
there is something that I'm proud of
of all things about myself that are for real
I like the way I'm different
I don't need to be like everyone else
to fit in
besides, that cloud is overcrowded anyway
and ine is much roomier
if people don't accept me for who I am
why should I want their acceptance?
I'm not like them, they're all the same
it's so hard to find a soul
so at ease with their existance
and state of being
that they float around on their own
and do as they please
without worrying about what people thought of them
some might say that being an "individual"
is a stereotype but if they want a stereotype
they should take a quick glance in their mirror
then maybe they would see how they really look
being friends with one of them
is almost like being friends with all of them
the same non-existant perks and pleasures
of being ignored whenever anyone else is around
now, I don't like myself
& I don't have an ego
but I finally realized that
my hair
the shape of my nose
& my body structure
are all contributions to the fact that
of all things
I like the way I am
