In the land of magic,
I am the only one ordinary.
At the table of fabulous,
I am the only one anonymous.

And I'm just fine with being the incongruous.

Being different invites misunderstanding, conflict, and hatred. I've been through all that. But if the difference is beneficial, it will eventually show because the inferior will get eliminated. Í know I'm peculiar, and you can all despise me for that. But one thing you should know, I'm better at remaining alive, and that's what makes me the superior species. You're welcome to throw everything at me, but just so you know, there is a wall between us, and nothing can break it through.

I don't believe eternity, and am aware of my own end. I'm just trying to make this life worth the effort. Living is hard, and living well is almost impossible. I'm not born into some royal families, and even worse, I am different from the ordinary. therefore, I am destined to wander this earth alone till my last breath.

There have been all kinds of people I encountered. Some of them were pure malicious, and I would shun away from them as much as possible. Others could ignore my difference, and somehow in me, a desire to stay close to them was harboured. But I had to remind myself all the time, because when the good time is over, nothing would be left except a painful memory.

And here I see you again. I know you're not an enemy, and that's what makes things even worse. You never attack me, yet you leave me with scars deeper than from any battles. You depart with a smile, yet take away my hope and the reason I keep fighting.

I can't keep this up anymore. This is why I ask myself to erase everything about you until the pain is subdued, and force myself back into this reality. You are as beautiful as a sweet dream, but dreams are killed once I wake up. Thank you for hardening my heart once again, and next time we meet, I will not remember who you are.
