A True Definition

He said, she said… “You are weird.”
But who are they to judge you?
Normal! There’s no true definition for normal.
Forget what the dictionary says! Forget the definition that others have.
What their definition of what normal is. Is not yours.
Doesn’t even compare.
I mean, how can they compare?
Unless they be doing the same thing you be doing or the other way around than sure!
But is that true? See… we, us, others, live a different life.
It is what makes us who we are.
The way we live is our DNA.
Our own life stories may be somewhat alike to others, but they’re not.
Take that under consideration.
When the next person who calls you weird.
Tell them it’s your life, not theirs. They can’t judge you the way you live, love, and feel.
Like Miley Cyrus said in her booty shakin’ song,
“Only God can judge ya.” Unless you go to court, than a judge can.
What I’m tryna say is. Everybody is weird!
You, me, everybody! Because everything we do is different from others, we are weird.
And only we can understand ourselves.
So, keep in mind!
The word, “normal”, has no true definition.

I wrote this poem to show others that they are not alone when it comes to being weird. To show others that they don't have to be scared of what other people see them. They can be their self without being so insecure. The only thing that matters is how much they value them selves.
