You walked

Through the halls

Of ridicule

Not knowing

Why they hate you

Not knowing

That it was because

You were being you

They were hateful

Because you

Are different

You think in a different way

You listen to different

Music

Let the insults

Wash over you

Don't take

It to heart

They are jealous

Of your strength

Your ability

To keep moving forward

With their constant

Badgering

And putting no thought behind

Their horrible lies

That spread like wild fire

Don't change that

Don't break under the pressure

Keep your walls strong

It is okay

If they shake

Don't show a weakness

It will make it worse

But you can survive

Never forget

It's not forever
