Through Your Eyes
October 20, 2014
You see me as weak,
know me as kind,
you hear me as quiet,
you treat me as you would a porcelain doll,
careful not to break me,
give me a helping hand,
even when you're the one on crutches,
at least that is how you act to my face.

This is amazing. This is absolutely, beautiful and raw. It just has so much, emotion and power in it. It may be short, but it's still powerful and honest. I can connect to this, so much. Having a difference is hard, and I have been treated differently because of that. So, I can connect. You have such a talent and greatness and light in you; and you're an amazing and wonderful and talented writer and person. It's true. :) Believe that, because it really is and I sincerely believe that. This is just wonderful to me, your poem. Thank you so much, my friend! For sharing this. :)
I hope I was able to get across my point. I was trying to write about how having a learning differnce can be hard beacuse people treat you differntly.
