I wrote this one day along time ago after someone told me they hated my cause of my name.
I used to wonder
What Juliet meant,
When she gave her speech
In that play.
Then when someone
Hated me because
I was named "Kim",
I understood.

Not only did
I understand,
But I began
Something new.
From that moment on
I said
To people,
You don't have to like me,
But you better have
A good reason why.
