Iam not like you
Iam not like them
Iam not like you, So what if Iam?

You don't acept me for me
You judge me on the outside, and what you see

You don't like me because Iam not like you
Iam not like you, what do you want me to do?

I can't please the world and make them see
I wish everyone would see the real me

I don't fit in with your crowd, so what if i don't?
I'll never be up to your standards, I just wont

Like me for me
And not what you see

Like me for being the person Iam
Like me for being me and not like them

Different is good, infact its how we all are
You look at me differnt because of a scar

You look at me different because of my skin
You make me sick I dont know where to begin

You look at me differnt because of my hair
What's it to you? why do you care?

You look at me different, because of my size
We are all very differnt, What a surprise!

I dont judge you,Please don't judge me
I can't change you its the way it will be

Well said. Being judged sucks, especially when people only judge by what's on the outside. This was very good.

I happen to think that its wonderful that your not like everyone else...i mean the world would be so completely dull if everyone acted, dressed, talked and looked the same. We need diversity and thats what ur throwing in their face!! Great job and never fit into anyones mold. I love the meaning behind this

I really liked the poem and thought you did well in expressing the message out, but I'd just like to say that you really shouldn't care if people judge you or not because they're going to do it regardless if you care or turn your shoulder.
Might as well just be happy with who you are and carry on fruitfully.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.
