My red hair flowing down

My red hair flowing down my back

Some say it's unnatural

My light skin out in the sun

Being reminded to put on sunblock by those around me

My skinny figure

I'm seen as fragile, breakable

My poor eyesight, oversized hipster glasses

No one noticing my eyeclor until I take off my glasses

My lack of freckles

I'm seterotyped and called "daywalker"

These small things on the outside 

Make me who I am

Though I am sometimes harassed 

Or treated differently

I stand out of the crowd

I love who I am

And I love who I am around

Though few dislike my hair, most love it

I love it

I am different I am recessive in everyway

And I love it

The sun is dangerous to me but it is dangerous to everyone

My bright ivory skin is what makes me myself

I may not tan everyday in a bed

But  I don't have to

I love my natural self

My bright blue eyes

My beautiful Ivory skin

My small lanky figure

My stunning red hair

I couldn't ask for a better me.
