Sticking slightly out in the crowd
But also blending in somehow
Everyone is blue
But I am a light gray
Not all that different
But still not the same
I'm not as bright
Nor quite as clear
But I can still blend in
Just don't come near
Where they shine bright and bubbly
I glow dark and murky
Sometimes I wonder why they can't see me
Disguising myself as normal, am I that stealthy ?
They talk sports
And I speak songs
They're teachers pets who get along
I'm not hated. Or very well liked.
My head stays down and I slip by.
Unnoticed, unseen, I'm an invisible queen.
With a crown made of glass
My heads a bleeding gash
Id give anything to break it
Watch it shatter with a smash
I want nothing more than to be the same as the masses.
For this crown that I'm holding, I wonder if I'm worthy?
I don't have the skills to disguise all my differences,
The things that make me brilliant, also disguise me to witnesses
Fields of tulips and brilliant sunflowers
With a single grey rose, holding no special powers
Thorned all over, and covered in sins
Every angle a hidden pain, some new thorn for others to prick with disdain.
I sway in the winds, my hope is caving in.
I want to have color, so I suck it from others.
Hoping that they dont wilt to quickly in my presence.
F
rom the poison that is my essence.
