I Am Strange (a Poem For Victims Of Sickle Cell) by jerrywill(m): 2:58pm On Aug 18, 2018 |
My hemoglobin is wrongly shaped So you think my life should go the same Please stop treating me this way Just because I am strange . The first on the list of sickness' aim 'too weak for that' so you claim Little illness, you give me blame Just because I am strange . Every little pinch gives me pain And like my red blood cells, I should fail You stigmatize me in every way Just because I am strange . I am a product of my parent's mistake Or say of their stubborn faith So you see me a mistake or shame Because I am strange . But I will prove you wrong over and again I'll fly to the highest plain Over your thoughts and words I'll reign Yes, 'cause I am strange 4 Likes 1 Share |
