yes
I ask for understanding
and knowledge of my kind
I pray for words
just simple words
that let me know
its valid, its okay.
At times its too hard
to say what must be said
because I fear the way
it might be heard
and not
understood
Understand that I am different
that i think in my own way
that no one made me believe this
or that society forced me here
believe that i am a person
with thoughts unique
each coin in my purse
each day in my past
adds to the dollar
and the person that wont last
because i too can alter
i too can see things like you
Because i pray for understanding
because i plea for knowledge
I yearn to know that I is not universal
and neither is you
So take me how i am
show me all your ways
but always
understand
That I will not live to please
I will live to be me
So
help
hold
love
and always
understand
