I am just a person
Someone I can be
A person with a reason,
to be just like me
A reason given to me,
by someone I once held dear

I am just a person
But not like you, you see
A person that is me,
Is a person you will never be

I am just a person
A broken one at that
A person in many pieces,
That I pushed under the mat

I am just a person
But no one really cares
A person that was laughed at,
While everybody stares
Laughed at for my looks,
A superficial thing like that

"I am just a person"
I tell myself everyday
A person who has lived,
To reach another day
