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.
