If you could see me for me,
See not my glasses and acne,
But see my true beauty,
My kindness and niceness.

If you could hear me for me,
Hear not my Speech Impediment,
But hear my voice for what it is,
Be it clear and easy to understand.

Please stop judging me,
And get to know me, for who I am,
Look beyond my imperfections,
And see my perfections.
After all, imperfection is Beauty.

People bully me for my speech Impediment and my glasses and acne. I got tired of keeping it in so I wrote this. After I wrote this, I felt alot better about myself. I'm not going to let them bring me down anymore.
