HIDE!

I hide my face behind my hair ....
I sit in silence as people stare...
Do i look funny, is there a reason to stare? .... maybe if you wouldn't stare
I would come out from behind my hair ..
I wouldn't feel like something is wrong with me......
just maybe if you just let me be
I'll be normal and just plain old me .... !!
