Stereotyped

You look at me

And on the outside you see

Black clothes

Black nails

Black lips

Black eyelids

Rings and pendants all over me

So these words enter your head automatically

Druggie

Drinks

Smokes

Slut

Delinquent

Satanist

School Shooter

You glare and roll your eyes

your stereotypical assumptions are all lies

What you don't allow yourself to see

Is what's truly inside of me

If you spoke to me then you'd see

I condemn all of that

But you don't listen at me you spat

And swore in the flamey depths of hell i will surely rot

Please try to see, my clothes may be black but my heart is not

Author's Notes/Comments: 

This was inspired mostly by the way old ppl look at me in the mall...hehe...

Ashely being disabled. I get the same type of looks from people. So you are not alone.
