Unidentified


To the unidentified young black male who was beaten , disfigured and burnt , I see you . To the young girl who was raped and beaten left broken and bruised , I hear you . To the Asian girl with those pretty chinky eyes who is bullied and lost , I feel you . To the gay boy with a laugh like silk who is beaten and ridiculed , I see you . You who are going through life confused and afraid , identity lost like a balloon that has been let go , I SENSE YOU .
