Different kind of difference

I have learned

That being different among the rest

Doesn’t mean

That you have to be a Goth

Who wears black at all times,

Because you’ll surely have thousands of replicates

That would seem to be mere dots across the globe;

To be different

You don’t have to be an EMO,

Because people would think twice

If you’re a Goth or a Punk

And may even mistake you for a street magician

Being different

Doesn’t mean you have to try hard to be weird;

You don’t have to try hard to be,

Since innately

We have certain degrees of weirdness;

Some want dead quietness

While some are deafened by sheer silence,

Some were born to age fast

While some die with the glee of a child in their eyes

And some eventually acquire

That certain degree of difference called…

Peculiarity
