You laugh because I'm different but I laugh because you all are the same.


I'm different

of course I am, why would I be the same person that walks next to me?

I have no style

Having no style makes me open to other ones instead of sticking to one.

I'm creative

I paint, draw, shade, color, design to keep my feeling from exploding at others

I can easily like someone for something they did

I can speak my mind without coming out too harsh

I'm tall and beautiful, not afraid to be who I am because a person doesn't like me

Why should I be like others? If I do then......

I won't stand out with the person I'm standing next to

My crazy style will not stand out with the new fashion sense these days

My drawings and my paintings will not stand out if the persons drawing next to me is the same

I won't easily like someone for what they did

I'll probably be shy, scared, afraid to speak my mind 

I don't want to be like the next person in line.

I just won't be Sage anymore

I'll just be the average person going through life that is scared of being themselves  

I don't want that

You should not want that ether

 

My presence will speak louder than my words

My presence will speak louder than my actions
