Costume
“Every morning I wake up
And get ready for the costume ball
I put on my mask
And dress that is not my own
This outfit I don
Is not my true style
But I wear it anyway
Because it is less daring
And I don’t take risks
Because I am afraid my true
Expressions
Feelings
Reactions
Thoughts
Beauty
Will not be appreciated
Will be laughed at
Because I am different
Like no other
Unlike the majority of others………”
–Kaitlyn Elkins age 14

I talked to her about it then. She shrugged it off and I thought everyone really felt that way at one time or another. Stupid me.
