What I am afraid to be
Find me, look for me
Catch me but don't intergate me
I did nothing wrong and yet you glare at me
Thinking I commited another common crime
I AM... in denial
I cannot face your acknowledging truth
I do not need you to tell me "I am one of them"
I have to confess to what I have done
But you leave me no choice to do so
I AM... in denial
The simple insanity of this crime
You will not forgive me if I convert completely
What many others have done successfully
Is what I admit that I am after
Forgive me, myself
For going against your ultimate rule
And what you consider a sin
The crime of becoming... normal
