Unique

He told me to stop being so unique
That’s like pulling a fish out of water and telling it to breathe
I just live to do what comes most naturally
Why for love must we be told to change our Identities
I’m goofy  I know……………..
It would be worth it if I got you to smile though
Yes 
my heart is exposed to everyone I meet
Some would call me naive
I would be your friend 
When everyone else would leave
