They are always looking down on me
Because of my young age
Why cannot anyone see
That youth is not an intelligence gauge
Just look me in the eye
And tell me how I am different from you
We are really all the same
I just wish someone knew
Its hard enough to get through life
Without this added adversity
I'm just as good as anybody
Why can no one see
Author notes
I chose the last option.
