Why?

Somehow he always finds me 

In the hallway

At recess 

Always

Me. 

I long to ask the question 

Why?

Why me?

Why not anyone else?

Why does he harass 

Me?

The one with hearing loss?

Every time I seen him 

I have the 

Irresistible

Urge

To flip him off 

To curse him out 

For what he has done to me.

For the

MULTIPLE

Times that he has 

KICKED

Me

For no reason 

Except to. 

So now I say 

no.

no more.

  • A Call To Action

    We are a group of people mostly under the age of 18 that according to the government might as well not exist.

    We are underestimated by grown-ups

    Because we have not been through all of school.

  • Shrouding My Differences

    Almost every day I wear a hoodie.

    To hide a part of me that I can’t escape.

    It shrouds my difference from the world.

    So that I can seem normal.

    So I can fit in.

    So that nobody can pick on me about it.

  • Daily chaos

    Every day at school is chaos.

    The noise

    The people 

    All the people 

    Sometimes I want to hide in a corner 

    To get away.

    To recenter myself.

    So that I don’t break down.
