Just because I'm me
Don't act like I don't exist

Don't snicker and stare as I walk on by

Don't push me around

Just because I'm me
It doesn't mean I don't have feelings

It doesn't mean you're smarter

It doesn't mean you're better

Just because I'm me
Look me in the eye
Try to talk to me and get to know me
Just because I'm me...Let me be myself

The author's comments:
I wrote this one day at school. I'm known as the girl without talent, a heart, or feelings. So, to show everyone they were wrong, I wrote this, and sang it during lunch. I proved myself. That was my task at hand.

"Writing, I think, is not apart from living. Writing is a kind of double living. The writer experiences everything twice. Once in reality and once in the mirror which waits always before or behind."
