so many different people
in this small small world
we all choose to judge the other
but never wonder what they think about us.

i hate it when people stare
at me without caring
i wonder what they think about me
but i can tell from their glare.

i know that im different
and thats how im always going to be
so im learning to not notice
what people say about me.

but to leave you with one thought
because i thought about this too
if we're all trying to be different
then unique people are very few.

(haha, this is really bad, but i just had to post something in the new teen poetry! although, i had already written the very last paragraph, and i think its ok, i couldn't think of something very good to go with it, and it would've been WAY WAY too short w/o anything else. but what do y'all think about what i said in those last few lines? just a thought i had...and wondered what other people thought...)

Hey buttercupbaby,

The last stanza, my favorite in the whole poem, is something I've thought about a lot too! I've always wondered about how we can be "unique" when everyone else is "unique" to which makes no "unique" people - Wow! confusing... lolz

So, not one of my favorites by you but it does make you think a lot about the “uniqueness” deal.
Which I like it when poems make you think deeper, it kind of gets rid of the superficial-ness of it all, if you know what I mean?

Thanks for sharing this piece
