Have you ever needed something so bad but it never came?
It might be money
It might be a promotion
It could be anything

What I needed never came
I'm not sorry that I am different
From the rest of souls by age
As long as my difference is useful
My psyche is honored

I longed for acceptance
Acceptance from the heart
Unfortunately, it never came
And even if it did
It was from those who didn't really know me

I'm not sorry that I am different
I like how I comb my hair
Wear my clothes
And do me

Every girl is unique
This girl likes eating chocolate bars while
Laying on the cold porch tiles
Thinking of how I can
Grace the pages

The world never opened its hand out for me
Not even a bone-crushing hug
More like showering me with insults

What does the world really understand?

Nothing
