Is it really fair
the whispered words
quiet voices talk
is it me they spite

The words cut me deep
am I is He did He
who are they to tell
merely puppets of the norm

how dare they simple minds
how dare they misunderstand
I am not here for them
I am above them

Their words cut deep
but I am a sea
never will they
Cut into down into me

They talk endlessly
Of me what i have
may or could have done
strike forth i say

Can any knife find my heart
Can any arrow find its mark
Nay, I say they won't
For i am only a little bit strange

------------------
Pride of place in the human race goes to one without a trace,
of subtlety style ego or grace for this position, I wish to say, i would be proud as i am greater than any other face in the crowd

Merely puppets of the norm...

Cool words.

Yes, I too loved the line, puppets of the norm....

Your indifference to the thoughts and words of others and respect for your own choices and accomplishments is a tribute to who you are.

A little bit strange is what makes us all come here. ( A pre-requisite I believe )

Wonderful words my friend.
