The Alien

I cannot make small talk, do the dishes,

I struggle with time and understanding,

What I should want or what my real wish is,

Half of me is punishing, demanding,

You’re not what this earth could naturally birth,

But uniqueness is not what one can’t do,

Others’ expectations are not my worth,

God knows the only thing I ever knew,

Was how to love in my flowering way,

Universal energy, one thin ray
