For The One I Don't Know
They say
"You're special"
They tell me
"You're an old soul"
I'm screaming through
This pretty smile
Stop! Stop!
I just want
Not to be normal
But to have...
Friendship
Love
I want to be crazy
I want to be
Impulsive
I want excitement
Not this
Never-ending dullness
That consumes my
Every day
There's nothing
That I can do
Peers say
"She's weird"
Adults say
"She's special"
My parents say
"She's a joy"
My siblings say
"She's melancholy"
My heart says
"You don't fit in
anywhere"
What am I?
Who am I?
Will I ever
Meet at least one
Who says
"You are perfect
for me"
