IF ONLY

If only I could be better
perfect as a desired daughter
But I cannot exceed
Their impossible explanations

If only I wasn't born
If I was meant to be
Seeing the ugliness
The reality can be

If only I could blend in
blend with the flow
And not an outcast
Shunned by the society

If only I could be normal
For the world to accept me
But I turn out to be an odd pea
In the pea pod
