Normal

Normal is conforming
Conforming to the standards of a community
A society
All to be normal
For you to be percieved as normal
But who decides what normal is?
How could one person decide what is normal
For every single person in the world
Because, see
Everyone has their own perceptions of this world
Their own viewpoints
Their own standards
Everyone sees normal from a different point of view
So how could one person tell me what normal looks like?
They can't
But they sure do try
So if there is one normal
What happens to everybody else?
We become different
Weird
People to be scared of
Because we are "not normal"
I know what it feels like to be categorized as different
I am far from normal and that's fine by me
Because I don't want to give into this label of normal
If normal means giving up a part of myself
I don't want it
So whoever you are
Stand with me
And fight against the standards of normal
In our community
And in our society
Don't give in to someone else's perception of normal
Because if we do
We lose our identity
Our identity is who we are
It's not something that should be taken away from us
Not now
And not ever
