Proud to Wear Black

Bright cheery colors bunched in a clump
People with smiles, happy and gay
Two or three girls are in the center of the mix
The grass is green the sky is blue; everything is perfect

Two of the girls have deep brown hair
One has a sandy blond
They all wear pink skirts and have matching necklaces
Everyone around them is talking at once

One brunette and one blond are laughing with their friends galore
But the third is barely smiling, but very aware that her life is perfect
Soon she will realize that though it is perfect, perfect is not good enough for her

IN a different world, a world of less laughter
There is a group of those in black, the ones who never smile
They are silent, suicidal, mysterious
And they are unnaturally teased

But every day they walk the halls
Ignoring the sneers and glares of their peers
They walk, eyes straight ahead, heads held high
They walk proud, proud to be different
Proud to wear black

The brunette, the once popular girl
She now walks among this crowd
Walking aimlessly, acting as if she were not alive, but dead
This is what she wants, to be dead

She has been through hell, yet never complained
She has cut herself, tried to commit suicide
She hates her parents, but loves her new friends
At school they are losers, unwanted, treated like scum

Yet still, everyday they dress in black
Long ago did they replace pink miniskirts and lip gloss
With black, all black, black make up, black clothes, black
They themselves are black and they are proud to wear black

Being different is good, but some do not agree
They discard ones unlike themselves because it is new, often frightening
Many are scared of the difference, but most are just unwilling to accept those who enjoy solitude, enjoy darkness, enjoy black

But even when those in black walk the halls
And others jeer and snare
They will always be proud
Proud to be different, proud to be new
Proud to wear Black
