It dawns on me every day,
what if I was different...?
What if I never had dyslexia.
Would my life been better?
It has put so much pain in my life.
It's like a never ending war,
bombs dropping every time I miss spell a word.
I see myself not being bullied if I never had dyslexia.
I struggle like a fish out of water.
I'm afraid of my future.
I get labeled when I read in front of the class.
I'm like a little sailboat in the middle of a storm.
I believe that I would be happier with out it.
But it makes me me and that's what I need to learn.
What dawns on me.

I sit Alone on the way to a game.
I wear the clothes that all the popular kids wear.
I am a Alone.
I try to fit in but all I do is push myself farther down.
I try new things to get noticed, all I do is make a fool of myself.
I go to school everyday I try to stay under the radar but I keep coming up.
I wish I was Alone.
I thought standing out would help my situation, it made it worse.
I was bullied by so many people that I cant even keep track.
I should have stayed Alone.

I see Trees of Green, Red Roses too.
I see them bloom for me and you.
And I think to myself what a wonderful world.
I see skies of blue and clouds of white.
The bright blessed day, the dark scared night.
And I think to myself what a wonderful world.
The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky.
Are also on the faces of people going by.
I see friends shaking hands saying how do you do.
They're really saying I love you.
I hear babies crying, I watch them grow.
They'll learn much more, than I'll never know.
And I think to myself what a wonderful world.
Yes I think to myself what a wonderful world.
oh yeah.*

I am Sad, But Happy
I am Empty, But Full
I am Alone, But Crowed
I am Dark, But Colorful
I am Evil, But Good
I am Human, But what are you?
