Human

I don't understand

Why does it matter to you

Who I truly am?


I look just like you

I have no wings, horns, or scales

So why do your eyes

Target me, and only me?

Your glares burn deep in my skull.


To you, I'm a freak.

You say I belong in a

Mental asylum

Strapped to a bed, until my

"problems" are beat out of me.


Faggot, slut, retard.

Words that feel like knives and burn

Even worse than the

Time you punched me all over

And kept going while I cried


"Someone, make it stop!"

Stand up, do not be afraid!

Don't walk away while

Somone points a gun at me

And says "Be normal, or die"


So please, stop the hurt.

I'm one of you, a human.

I'm not a monster
