born different it feels like a curse when you make 'different' rhyme with 'worse' when nothing that I am or do could ever be enough for you expectations list of demands you get so angry when I can't I see your limitations yes I am the one who understands

Everywhere I go Try to find my place Try to find one place Where I belong There must be somewhere I can find a space I can find one space Where I can be safe Every day I try Try to earn my place Try to earn my space Find what I can trade Try to hide my needs Trade my needs away I can only cry Where I hide my face I can only hide Where I have a space Where I have a place That they cannot find What I am inside What I learned to hide When they cannot face What they cannot place Try to find my place I can't seem to find Could it be This place is a state of mind I will take my strength I will build a place I will build a space Where I belong

Place
You might not understand Why I'm so caught up In doubt Just Having an existential crisis Because I can't control outcomes How can I take ethical actions If I can't predict the whole Chain reaction I am afraid To take a step Because I can't choose What happens next I can't protect The ones I love I think that's what I'm most afraid of

Chain Reaction
I tell the truth I wish that were enough to make people believe even with all my evidence people would rather be deceived by someone who is more persuasive someone who can make them feel when I can only make them know when I have only what is real as if we cared about the truth as if that were what matters when I know people are animals I shouldn't have expected better I just need to learn to play their game to dance their little dance and talk their way and maybe they will give the truth another chance

See Me
nothing is isolated everything is symmetry every particle is a wave of probability every leaf is the tree every drop of water is the sea to exist is to be inextricably interwoven into everything intricately intimately entangled

Entangled
existence everything is the expression of the essence of what is is it transcendent? no one knows we know it is what is and it is within everything in all of its expressions not one aspect not one fragment not one fraction the whole fractal light and shadow time and energy and all their interactions every action is a fraction of a causal chain of infinite reactions everything that we look forward to and back on and react to is all stacked up like the turtles the world stands on the back of and in the space between the vectors there's a shape there's a shadow there's a force there's a field there's a push there's a pull there's a presence there's a pattern in the echoes of the echoes of the echoes every echo is another event to reflect on and the essence of that presence is reflected into everything in synergy with the heavens waves in the energy woven together and the void and the silence and the senselessness and the violence are no less an expression of that essence
