Our World

May 13, 2025

This world doesn't want people like me

People who were born different People who were raised differently People who look and think differently

People like me People like you People like us

They try to beat us into place Convince us that no one wants us Erase us from the narrative Hope that everyone forgets about us Then leave us to deal with the trauma All on our own

But we are not alone We are not wrong Every single person in this world is different in a million different ways Who are they to say that their ways are right and ours are wrong?

We are different We are unique We cannot be silenced We cannot be erased

Because this is our world

and we will not be forgotten
