Never

I never learned how to teach the world to understand me 

as they always taught theirs to never view me

While my sister's never learned to be more then what a book told them to be 

as their love never outgrew the idea to becoming another number in the book that dries her tears in secret 

While my brother's shoots another needle in thier veins because they never felt love the ordinary way

what our brain saw as normal, the world never cared to reach in for a hug 

Our skin was beautiful, those who looked different embraced us 

they wrote their notes as if we were experiments 

but never tagged up in the innovations that made them rich 

and although those disfigured clouds ran out of hopes and rain 

but never dared run freeing us from the shadows to final rest our pain upon the sun

I was never taught how to understand the world 

as the world has taught me never to make a move in life without watching them

Or I would never have a chance
