I wish I was a butterfly with legs

The world stands still

But still I tremble

I try to hide as the crowd passes by

Hoping no one looks

Hoping no one stares

I look in wonder as each person moves

I see them sit

I see them walk

Like butterflies with legs

Oh how I wish I was a butterfly with legs

But I’m not

I just tremble like a lost and fallen leaf in the fall

Moving as the wind takes me

Hoping no one sees

Hoping no one notices

But today

Someone did look

Someone did stare

I was so scared

What were they thinking?

I’m no butterfly with legs

I’m just a lost and fallen leaf

But today

Someone did see me

Someone did notice me

And…

That someone smiled at me.

Four Little Pills That Changed My Life

Here's my life
In four little pills
Ya...four little pills that control my life
Let me just tell you about these four little pills
These pills...these pills right here
Makes it so that way I can actually function!
I mean seriously...
Who needs a pill just to function in life?
Apparently I do
And then this pill...
This pill right here
Makes it so I look normal
Who wants to be normal anyways?
Well apparently...apparently that's what ALL of society wants me to be!
Let me just tell you...
I wasn't born to be normal
But that's what my doctor tells me I have to be
My doctor says
"Be normal Kim"
"Be normal"
"Take these four little pills"
Cause you know what happens when I don't take these four little pills?
My world comes crashing in
Everything changes
In a blink of an eye
Poof!
There I am
In the hospital
It's kind of scary actually
To be here one second
And then laying in a hospital bed the next
Some days I wish all of you just understood me!
But the reality is you're never gonna understand me
Ever
It gets kind of lonely sometimes
I'm not gonna lie
Taking these four little pills
These four GOD DAMN STUPID pills that I hate!
But I need them just to be normal
Like you
Why do I want to be normal like you?
Oh yeah
Cause the doctors tell me
And my mom and my dad
They're like
"Be normal"
But I don't want to be normal
I want to be great!
Even if it's just for one day...
Just for one day
To stand up
And to be like
"I AM GREAT!"
"I'm wonderful"
Look at me
Do you see me?
Look past these four FRIGGIN DAMN pills!
Ahh my life
I can't do anything
Without these stupid pills
It's so frustrating
You know?
But what can you do?
I guess everybody has something
Maybe you're really not normal
Who knows?
Maybe you take a pill
Just like I do
I suppose it's possible
Hmmm
I never thought of that
Now that I think about it
Maybe you and I
Are just the same
