Just because (macduff challenge)
Just because I am from Singapore,
Does not mean I am Alien!
Just because I live with my mother,
Does not mean I am a mummy's boy,
Just because I am lonely,
Does not mean I am desperate!
(But I am)
Just because I am short ,
Does not mean I cant get taller girls,
Just because I am different,
Does not mean I am not human.
Just because I write poems,
Does not mean I am boring.
Just because I am obese,
Does not give you a right to ridicule me!
I am not tall,not smart,not even intellectual ,
But you will find ,a funny,friendly,caring,honest,sincere,faithful,romantic guy inside,
Trying to get out and be what I am and not just because you said
so...

Nicely done. We all tend to stereotype people but with this poem you have shown a real individuality and uniqueness. Very impressive.
I'm not bitter or sad ,just mighty glad to get it off the chest ..Special thanks to Macdoff .. He didnt spill a can of worms but got us understanding each other better ..Cheers to you mate.
Does not mean I am Alien!
