Different is like being stranded on an island where no one looks or sounds anything like you.

They stop.
They stare.
They talk.
But never understand.

Time passes,
You learn their language.
You learn their culture.
You learn how to fit in.

But on the inside, you know that you'll never be one of them.
They will never feel the disconnect that is life for you each day.

And deep down, you know that, in reality, they will never really see you as one of them, anyway.
