Poem- Beginning of a new me

I am changing away

You ask, ” what way?”

Well, that depends,

On person to person.

Many think it’s brave of me,

Other look at me with dismay.

Many saw the grit in my eyes,

Others saw it black.

When I helped them.

They mocked my height,

I mocked their atom like brain

With sub-atoms filled with stupidity.

I blocked them but forgave a few.

I was then supported by some and hated by some.

But I no longer cared.

They dismay, disrespect me,

But I no longer cared.

Because that was the beginning of a new me.
