Why must you torment me,
Day in and day out?
Is my life not hard enough
That you must bring me more pain?
I'm not you...
I'm NOTHING like you...
I don't want to be YOU...
So stop expecting me to be you!
I AM ME;
Accept me or hate me...
Maybe I could be happy...
Leave me alone...
...that's a start...

More of a creative rambling, I wrote this poem after dealing with a typical conformist, who had expectations that everyone should be like them. I feel normalcy is overrated, by far...especially after taking a good, hard look at the so-called "normal" people that expect me to model myself after them. No thank you ~ I'll stick to being a freak and never crossing over.
