Inside,
None of us are
Perfect.

None of us are
Normal.

But when someone
Doesn’t pretend
To be normal,
They’re weird.
They’re crazy.

Aren’t we all??
Crazy?
Only a?
Crazy person would
Chase the impossible:
To be normal,
To be perfect.

Since when has?
Different
Become crazy?
When has
Unique
Become a
Bad thing?

Since when has it?
Become okay
To pick on,
To bully,
To tease
The different,
The unique.

Because if we all
Believe in this,
We all have to be
Just a little bit
Crazy.


In the end,
Crazy is synonymous with
Freak.
Weirdo.
Loser.

But is that what it?
Really means?
Did we make the word
Crazy or
Freak or
Weirdo
To be used to
Harm?

We certainly didn’t.
But then the
Normal people,
The pretenders,
Told us that they
Were.

So why should we listen
To the “normal” people??
Why should we listen
To the pretenders.
To let people
Label us.
?You.
People who don’t really
Know you
?Label you.
Why should we listen?

We’d have to be
Crazy
To do so.
Wouldn’t we?

So we’re all a little
Crazy.
Inside.
Outside.
But that’s okay.
Because
Crazy
Defines us.
We are all crazy,
But we’re all?
Our own special?
Crazy.

Imagine that.?
We’re all a little
Crazy
In our own
Special way.
