A Different Light

by secret-author

You see this world. This I know to be true. But you see refractions And shadows of other yous. Your cries are misrepresented Seen as horror in the night But I know that it's just Peter Pan Making faces in the light. You are different. I'll give you that. But differences are just Glitter in the cracks. Some may say that You are wrong, But you're not, their Imagination is just gone. You are beautiful. Scars and all. Scars especially; it's Strength, not a downfall. Hold on to the colours Dancing in your head, Because without them, girl It will all be grey instead.
