I'M Different From You

I'm different from you you won't understand why you dont even see it but knowing it makes me cry I'm different from you you ask what i mean I tell you you're normal a statement to you, obscene I'm different from you I feel lowly and ashamed you ask how can that be it's the result when you hold the blame I'm different from you hurt, alone and feelings of guilt over nothing i've done but a tower around me it's built I'm different from you how lucky for you I see if you stood where I came from you'd think different of me I'm different from you so the real me hides I must guess at what's normal and act so then the fear in me subsides I'm different from you my story would make you doubt simple humanity for one thing and why this you never knew about I'm different from you right from the gate my life was changed it was already too late. 1/22/21
