Don’t talk down to me I am not a child! Even children Deserve respect
Didn’t they know that people cared? That they were loved? Why didn’t someone tell them?
I told everyone About you The ugly beast Inside of me You can’t hide
I find richness In the mixture In what others disdain Young people lost Between two cultures
Beside you I am At peace Our love A connection
I will be Forever in debt To my mother Any gift Would come up short
Who’s the best? Ask my Daddy He’ll tell you Enthusiastically He always sees
The pressure inside Is building It comes out through my eyes I stop up the tears It comes out through my nose
To be genius means To not follow the rules You don’t have to I wish to be smart But not self-important
Hospitality To love a stranger It need not be much For one who has little Will appreciate it
A noisy restaurant Listen Focus Beyond the dishes The music
My body is perfect —ly spotted The white spots I tell myself Are my Bambi spots

The medication is not me But neither is the sickness it tre… You may hear its effects In my voice In my opinions
Have you ever felt A hole inside of you Something dead inside Where your heart Is supposed to be?
