The Deafness of Me

Don’t feel sorry for me.
In lots of ways
I like
the deafness of me.

I like
Being online
Hanging out with deafies
Teaching sign language
Listening to music as much as I want
Laughing till I cry
…..and having the whole group of deaf friends

I hate
Being treated differently
Hanging out with non-deaf group
Going to movies with no closed-captioned
Listening to hearing person complaining
(“oh nothing, just talking about this and this”
“You already knew…” [Not wanting to sign])
……and having to go home

I hope
Some day will come
That I will find a place
Who that will let me
Fit in all I love to be in,
Get rid of all I hate,
I love being me

I hate poetry but I liked this.
