INSULTED
"You are ugly"
I know,
I've been told this.
"You are silly"
I know,
I have realized this.
"You look like an alien"
I know,
this has been pointed out to me.
"You have big eyes"
I know,
I have looked in the mirror.
"You can't be a pilot,
you are not smart enough"
It is possible,
I have considered this.
With every insult
you invent,
it is strange,
but it's true.
You point out
my many failings
and help me to improve.
As you highlight
my many
weaknesses,
you also highlight
my strengths.
My ugliness
leads to my kind
personality.
My silliness
brings laughter
to the world.
My resemblance to
movie aliens
only highlights
my intelligence.
My big eyes
portray my feelings
and widen my view.
I may not make it
as a pilot,
but I could be.
You see,
every insult
you invent
gives me a view
into your mind.
Although I have
many problems,
I feel sorry for you.
Why, oh why
do I feel sorry for you?
Because your mind
cannot break free.
The wall of insults
you build
limits your mind
of feelings.
So, soon,
if you don't stop,
you'll turn inhuman,
and have the biggest
problem of all:
Loneliness.
Think about it!
