Forgive me for I am forever flawed.
Born scared, chewed up, and mauled.
A gift I was given, the gift of life.
But something was taken, a sacrifice.
I am different than most, a brain malfunction.
I do not come with papers, or instruction.
I must navigate alone in a sea of existence.
Doing what is right with patience, and persistence.
I once did not understand that I was this way.
For I was just a pawn in life, just here to play.
But now I know, and with a heavy heart.
I am forced to reboot, give in, and restart.
Forgive me for I am not your average man.
I was born with gods will, and a different plan.
I have climbed to the highest peak and survived.
I have hit rock bottom and never compromised.
