Would You Laugh At Me
If I Sat Down,
Tears Streaming Down My Half Dominican Half Puterican Face,
Droplets Of Water Coming From My Brown Eyes
Would You Laugh At Me?
If I shaped the stars and the sun,
With a #2 pencil full of led,
Would you laugh at me?
If I looked through a lens Of hope,
To see the bright, ripe moon
Glowing from a distance
Would you laugh at me?
If I try to mimic characters
From an amine,
With a smile of warm joy,
Would you laugh at me?
If I act like myself,
To be your fragile friend
You hold close.
Would you laugh at me?
If I work hard to
Complete Projects
Or videos to make you smile
Would you laugh at me?
If I had bruised myself
Without knowing
Would you laugh at me?
If I embraced
my half Dominican- half Puterican side of my life
Would you laugh at me?
If I fall...
Through the swollen pit of life vs death
Would you laugh at me?
If I Replay my favorite songs,
Humming the lyrics
Would you laugh at me?
If I stay...
Or If I go...
Would you laugh at me?
Or have the courage to say… Hello.
