"Different"

Why am I a four-leafed clover,

in a field of three's?

Why am I a rain cloud,

in a world of sunbeams?



Why did He make me this way,

why did I deserve?

I was only a child when He made me,

something I didn't earn!



Why does my heart have to ache,

why do I always have to feel?

Why can't things just be a lie,

instead of being oh so real?



Why am I yellow,

in a world of black and white?

Why am I wrong,

in a world that seems so right?



Why do I cry,

when my eyes are supposed to sleep?

Why do I dangle off a cliff,

that is so very steep?



Why do I keep living,

in a world that's so unfair?

Why do I keep crying,

when no one really cares?



My beating heart beats as others,

and I taste salt when I cry.

So why do I feel so different,

why am I the one to die?
