LAYLA & CLAUDIA
I am unique / I am not normal
and I know that / and I know that
so very well. / so very well.
I like green and blue / I like white and black
mechanical pencils / freshly sharpened pencils
the scent of pastries. / the smell of ripe apples.
I like a "Perfect Sky" / I like a "Wintry Sky"
watermelon with no seeds / perfectly shaped strawberries
when paper rips in a straight line / when tape doesn't curl up
fresh hard covers. / used books with no dog-ears.
I hate ants crawling on me / I hate knives screeching against plates
my dad being stressed / people ordering me around
when I forget about things. / my family yelling at me.
I hate when I have to go to bed / I hate when I can't tell night from day
when my 'friends' laugh at me / when my 'friends' forget about me
hot summer days. / getting distracted.
I am impatient / I am lazy
yet I wait for a certain thing / yet I care about a specific thing
I am a weird human being / I am a weird human being
and that is fine by me. / and that is fine by me.
