"You're too much!"
I sit silently in classes terrified to make noise.
I refrain from blurting my thoughts in fear of being judged.
"You're so annoying."
I keep my head down as I walk only saying hi to teachers in the halls.
I try my best to keep my personality down.
I wear normal clothes and I make normal sounds.
"you're weird."
But it's never enough.
For I am not something that can be refrained,
I am bold, I am loud, and I'm here to stay.
Who's ever been told that they're too much?
Fuck that.
we stand with Palestine.
