Dread flooded my mind
Waiting for the day
That someone tells me
I shouldn't be this way

Your attributes make you whole
Some may not like them
Or despise you completely
But no one should take the things
That make up your soul

I didn't understand it
Confused by my differences
Making me separate from the rest

Trying not to breathe
Wiping the tears on my sleeve
Feeling my heart ache from the agony

Why are you like this
Who put me in this position
Does anyone else feel the same
Why do I seem to be the only one

Who am I exactly
Do these feelings define me
I don't look the same as the others
Does that make me inferior

Am I in the wrong
Should I just smile and play along
I need someone in my corner
To put me back in order

A person to reassure me
Someone to encourage me
Saying that I'm not beneath the others
So I know who am I for myself
And where I truly belong
