Just Because I'm...

Just because I’m someone

that you never knew

doesn’t mean I’m ugly,

I’m just different from you.

I have feelings

I have dreams like anyone else,

and I hope it will all come true.

Just because I’m someone

that you never knew

doesn’t make me feel like a stranger

because I’m human, too.

Sometimes I feel very lonely

without anyone to talk to,

just because I’m someone

that you never knew.
