My whole life

I wanted to be someone else

I wanted to escape

Because of all that I felt

I couldn’t bear the pain

The insults toward my name

How they honored the vain

And were mean to the lame

It takes away

All of your power

To wish you were different

So you could feel loved by cowards

Love yourself sweetie

Just as you are

Be as sweet as a kitty

God handles those He pities

You are special

So kind indeed

Don’t hang around the dull

Instead find children to feed
