Beyond the Window

By ABH

I am different but that’s O.K. 
You open the door and it leads to another world.
Actually, how many people do you know that are disabled?
People like me are usually pushed to the side of the stage. 
The smell of anger. 
I would like to have a bob done to my hair. 
I would like to change the way I usually look at myself.
The top part of my lips really confuse me.  
My lips make me angry because whenever I smile my lips turn away. 
Did you know that raindrops are little specks of dead water?
I am happy with the rest of myself. 
My cat licks my hair. 
She bats at me and claws at my ankle.  
She jumps on your lap and takes over your life.
Basically, it’s another 16-year-old day. 
Your hormones are burning and your pants don’t fit.
Catch my drift here. 
My silver medal means success. 
Basically, it’s my life.
