Lament of An Alien
Always thinking of the right words to say
It would have been clearer if I said it my way
Even a move is a topic for thought
Always unsure if they get it or not…
Every small gesture is a means to an end
Each little truth is a point to defend
When something is different they see it as strange
It’s more than enough to make you deranged!
Always regarding the usual as norm
Always preferring when someone conforms
Thinking it’s better if they’re all the same
Each like the other except for their name..
Ain’t that a shame?
