Beauty And The Beast part 1
During my birth and in my life
I didnt come alone: I came with a wife
When they saw her, they said, "What a Beautiful Creation"
until they cast their eyes on me and shouted "Ei! Why this Abomination?!"
But see, it wasnt funny, Damn Discrimination
and I got used to it after it happened on several occasions.
Walking around people looking at me like I am insane
others running away like I am the new Saddam Hussein
I never fully understood why most people said "Goodbye!" before I had the chance "Hi"
then picking up a mirror I saw a contourted face...
So many pimples accompanied by these two dimples sometimes looking like grains and if you knew not how to navigate then it would be a maze
They treated me like an alien and gave me some space
cause anytime I tried to join them they would increase their pace
almost as if they were trying to win their own imaginable race
I still think about how everyone looks at me and not be amazed........
