Fitting in

People all around me swarm
Popular people
A crowd
A storm
I look down at myself
So different
So worn
I look back up at people
All the very same
Except for me who is full of shame
I feel like I’m in the wrong
Like I’m singing a different song
But then I noticed,
That no one really needs to belong
So from that day on, I held my head up high
No matter what people thought
No matter what energy they brought,
I am myself,
And I am proud
And if I want to,
When I want to
I will be loud.
