Normal
What's that?
Fitting in with every
Stepford wife lookalike
Within a 5 mile radius

Why is being
Unique
Strange
Different
A bad thing

You were born ugly
Pinocchio
All alone
You have no friends

Why would anyone like you?
Where did you get those clothes?
You are stupid
You talk weird

You will never amount
To anything
Popularity is key
You'll never be anyone's favorite

You're not normal
You're weird
I don't want your germs

All those things
A little girl had to hear
It took her many years
To come to terms
With it all

She's forgiven
And realized something essential
Weird is beautiful
Normal is boring

People are afraid of difference
Change is scary
Normality in their cases
Are the 7 deadly sins
Especially envy

Forgiveness is key
Don't need to forget
But it's a lesson to learn
And pass on to the next generation

Weird is beautiful
That little girl was beautiful
And talented
And unique
And different

She was better then all
Of them combined
She was a shy caterpillar
But turned into a
Warrior butterfly

So the next time someone
Tells you that being different
Is a bad thing because
You're not like them

Look them in the eyes
And tell them
"Weird is beautiful"
Then walk away
With your head held high

Sit in your own truth
Be your own
Beautiful, proud weird
