Am is so different,
Because of the things I cannot do,
Does that really make me so different from you.
Am I so different,
Because of the things I have been through,
Is this what makes me less normal than you.
From my looks,
You would never know,
That I have so much wrong, it would never show.
Pity is not what I want,
Not what I need,
With your understanding I can be free.

I really like this poem. I can really relate to this. I feel like this 90% of the time.
