What I am afraid to be

Find me, look for me

Catch me but don't intergate me

I did nothing wrong and yet you glare at me

Thinking I commited another common crime

I AM... in denial

I cannot face your acknowledging truth

I do not need you to tell me "I am one of them"

I have to confess to what I have done

But you leave me no choice to do so

I AM... in denial

The simple insanity of this crime

You will not forgive me if I convert completely

What many others have done successfully

Is what I admit that I am after

Forgive me, myself

For going against your ultimate rule

And what you consider a sin

The crime of becoming... normal
