Never thought life would get better
I was laughed at
Pushed around
Teased

I was the weird person people always made fun of

I was smart
Talented

But no one saw that

They saw with their ears
Not with their eyes

She is fat
Ugly
Not normal
Attention Whore

Was I really any of those things..

Or was I the girl who did well in school  
Who played violin
Sang when no one was around
Who kept to myself because I didn't need a crowd

People need to stop

Look at what is really there
Don't base a body of a human being off of what others say
See for yourself and give it a chance
Look through the lies  
Poem about what I used to go through in middle school.

I like it. I think it descipe perfectly peoples closet-mindedes. How easily others see only what they 'want' to see. And this does gives away your strengh in all this
Good work :)
