Just because I'm different
Do not hate me
Do not fear me
Just because I'm different
Doesn't mean I am boring
Doesn't mean I am not friendly
Doesn't mean I am not fun
Just because I'm different
Do not avoid me
Do not talk about me behind my back
Because you are different too.

I wrote this after hearing so many lies and rumors about "unpopular" people and new folk that were not welcomed into the school I attend so well.
