A Poem for Haruhi
October 4, 2012
Why should it matter that I'm a girl?
I don't care if people think I'm a boy.
Whether I wear skirts or slacks,
It doesn't matter.
I don't care.
It's what's inside that counts.
And even if I have to dress as a boy,
It makes no difference,
I'm still who I am.
I don't mind.
Even if people think it's weird.
I don't need to look pretty,
Or feminine, or hot.
I'll just be myself.
I don't need this.
Why should anyone care about trivial things
Like what you look like or
What gender you are?
Just be who you are.
You won't care any more.
