Normality


Many people say that I’m different

But difference comes in many people

Many questions comes to mind

When they say ‘I need to be normal’

What does normal really mean?

How does normal feel?

Who says normality exists?

 

To me normal is just a word

A word for people to say

‘I’m usual’

But do they know

People are never usual

People are never normal.

 

I’m proud to be unusual

Normality means to be usual

Dull

The same

Boring

Tedious

Yawnful

Are you proud now?

 

Being unusual

Being abnormal

All means you’re unique

Means you’re perfect

Perfect in your own eyes

You see you the way you want to.

 

Many people say that I’m different

That I’m abnormal

All I can say is ‘thank you’

Compliments are a gift.

 

Let’s not disgrace the words of Eileen Caddy

 ‘Being a human being is being a single being;

Being unique and unrepeatable.’
