What am I to do

When I cannot reach

The bar set high for

Me that everyone

Else can easily

Jump right over just

Because I was born

Without all of the

"Requirements" that

Society does well

Impose onto all

That enter into

Life as we know it?

I can't help that I

Do not fit the mold

Everybody HAS

To fit exactly

In if they want to

Live a good life, I

Was made like this and

That cannot be changed

So why do we set

Such expectations

Onto us, onto

Our children despite

The truth that we know

It does not help to

Discriminate

Based on things that are

Not our fault being

As we are, no point

In excluding those

Who are not a part

Of the "norms" we hold

Over ourselves, can't

We just allow our

People exist and

Live in this world

As they are than to

Put a barrier

On who can live so

Happily and so

Blissfully we are

Supposed to have a

Right to as humans?
