its so powerful
to be understood...
to know your not alone
not the only one
looking for meaning
dreaming
appreciating the little things
she would be labeled a freak...
her hair all spiked up
multiple tatoos
but she understood me
the moment i walked in
a restaurant downtown
she sat beside me and told me my life
the way i never knew..
it takes that.. an outside view
to reveal the real you
yea they label her the freak..
i guess i am too
for we are so much alike
sometimes it takes
seeing things in black and white..
to help you live through this
i was not made of stone
all my searching
not in vain..
the pure meaning can always burn
away even the most distant..pain

Being understood is what we look for...it is our connection...if this happened I am happy for you. Beauty is beneath the skin.
