blind

Sometimes I have the hardest time seeing what other people see

I mean I’m not close minded or anything

And I often switch between seeing only black and white

And leaning heavily on gray

But I mean I often can not see what others see

When they look at meI honestly don’t get it

The thing that I like about school is that

I can see my hard work, my progress, my laziness

All in the form of a grade, percentage, correction,

and/or comment

But when it comes to what people say about me…

I don't think badly of myself, but....

I kinda just go with the flow

I remain polite, smile and say thank you

But a good portion of the time

I am honestly blind to what they see
