I look like them
I act like them
I talk like them
But, I am different

I see the water ripple
I see the fire cry
I see the stars flicker
But, I dont understand them

I wish to be born as them
I wish they saw me
I wish I was normal
But, it dose not work that way

I see the water clear
I see the fire smile
I see the stars shine
Why don't they see as I do?
