Alopicia Totalis
I'm different.
For a few reasons actually,
I'm more mature for my age..
I'm more insecure than any other person
But most importantly I have no hair
I get targeted and left alone in despair.
Some of you may not know what this is so let me inform you:
Alopecia Total-is is when you lose your hair; eyebrows, eyelashes, hair on your head, etc.
Now before you all judge:
To Girls, imagine yourself what you would do with no hair.
As if you woke up one morning without hair.
Well, that's exactly how it is for me everyday.
I hate when girls say they hate their hair..
They wouldn't understand how quickly I would take it from them.
I see with girls with gorgeous locks
Right then my mind is blocked.
So insecure
Yet nobody to let out to.
People say I'm brave for doing this
Then why don't I feel it?
When I look at myself,
I see myself as an outcast
People judge when they don't understand..
People tell me all the time,
"At least I have hair.."
It hurts.
What makes it even more weird is that i run my long fingers through silky hair of a stranger.
I can't walk out the door bald..
I hate the looks, the eyes bulging with stares.
People make me feel like I'm from a zoo.
Guys never like me for me..
I'm weird, strange; nova.
It is so hard for me to go to High School,
or even anywhere in public..
I would never grant this on any other person, for it brings emotional pain which i wouldn't cast on the person who I may not get along with the best.
One of the motto's that keep me going is:
NEVER SAY NEVER. -Justin Bieber<3
