Black-haired stepchild by Timothy WilsonItaliano
He rides the highway back and forth
Not knowing it's end
Not remembering where he left from
Hypocrisy
The black strands of contradiction
he laughs at the irony
As he is (mostly) happy inside
expressive
The world knows his fabric
And the corners of his mouth won't stay down
because his articulate mind
contradicts the silenced voice
Rebellion
it comes unintentional
He just values his individuality
unsure of why
so he smiles again
sickly
with a little laughter
justified
by the fact that he is the worlds black-haired stepchild
