Unique

I'm not super-styling
Or your definition of chic
Or nail polish compiling
But I am unique

I'm whispered about
But when the outlook looks bleak
I push aside doubt
And think, "I'm unique"

I'm called many names
Like nerd and geek
It's all the same
The trials of being unique

I'm not that different
I'm not a freak
But I'm indifferent
Because I am unique

It's hard being atypical
Sometimes I feel weak
I hate stereotypical
So I stand out and am unique

Life is wonderful and a gift
It shoots by like a streak
Living is the norm and death is the shift
So why not be unique?
