Many people have told me, teased me about how my eyes never seem to hold any emotions.

Why? My eyes are total blackness. The doctor doesn't even know why I am like this, putting the blame on "rare genetic mutation ; unexplained"

I hate this. I hate my eyes. I hate who I am. Why can't I be normal? Why must this happen to me? Mother says I am just special.

Unfortunately, only she thinks like that. Queer, weirdo, freak, monster, I have all heard it. Also, I hate crying. Again, why? My tears are black. They stain my face and my clothes, and they make the bullying even worse. So I refrain from crying, thus, managing to create a wall around my emotions as time passes.

One that I thought would never break.
