Not Different From You

I am a person.

I am not different from you.

Yet,

You look at me like I’m garbage.

I’m not.

Why does this have to happen to me?

Why doesn’t anyone look at me?

Am I that ugly?

Horrible?

I want to change,

Believe me I do.

But I need help,

I need your help.

Can’t you help me out?
