Because I'm Different

August 9, 2014

I wake up in the morning feeling strange, I look in the mirror looking strange. what am I? some call me a girl some call me a boy, they say i'm not human and not real. But I'm Human because I feel. I go to school with my head down so I dont see everyone staring at me, But I feel them. I cant concentrate in class because all I hear is laughing from the boys they also talk about me at lunch , dont know where to sit so I go to the library and act like I'm like doing homework but i'm really not, get home from school dad wants a fooball player while mom wants a balerina, the dreams that they have for me is not what I want to do, but I dont have the courage to tell because I feel like their the only one's who loves me, how do I face society? When I get picked on and bullied at school and those kids are labeled as cool, when the popular girls get everything they want and all I want is to be excepted in a place where I'm supposed to be free, I never thought that this could be me. I stay away from everyone and keep my distance all because I'm different
