Was it because

Was it because,

 

   I wore black?

   I wore make up?

   I colored my hair blue?

   I listened to different music?

   I didn't play sports?

   I had few friends?

   I didn't say Hi to you?

   I didn't wave to you?

   I didn't go to prom?

   I didn't fit in with the norm?

   I was fat?

   I was skinny?

   I was gay?

   I was black?

   I was Asian?

   I was white?

   I wasn't as beautiful as you?

   I wasn't on the honor roll?

 

Or was it because

I was just being me?
