What will it take for me to detach from emotion
Is that what they mean by emo?
They pointed and laughed when I was little
Am I supposed to be happy that I feel so much?
There's too many questions and not enough answers
They think I wear too much black...
"But it's my favorite color?" I cried to my mom when I was five
Black was unacceptable and so was I
Kids with minds that told them anybody who's different should be punished and mocked
Now at age sixteen I see that it's me who is something not feared, but envied for the differences that once made me the laughing stock of a playground scenario
My ability to be different, to be me...
