I wish I was normal

I wish I could look in the mirror and see the me I feel I am

I wish I was normal

I wish I like things I am supposed to and fit in the role the world wants me to be

I wish I was normal

I wish I didn't long for the warmth of their skin or the sweetness of their lips on mine.

I wish I was normal

I wish my body let me do things like they can, to do the things I want like their bodies do

I wish I was normal

I wish I understood the unspoken rules, society has made me the punchline of a joke i don't get

I wish I was normal

I wish I could love freely like they love, to speak like they speak, and just be, free like they are free

I feel ashamed for these thoughts as I've found people like me, I've live and loved and know that being me is not wrong and that I have value as I am.

But sometimes I wish I was normal
And I know I'll never be
