I Am Alien by Eleto 2012/05/28 12:43
They say I am alien
‘Cause my skin is brown
And my words are accented
They say I am alien
Since my eyes are brown
And my straightened hair
Is no good when it comes
In contact with water
They say I am alien
Because I speak another
Language, often
Think a certain way and
Dress in foreign clothes
They say I am alien
For I look nothing like them
And perhaps they are right
Except
When they cut me
I bleed just like them
Scarlet red
When they hurt me
I cry
Saline fluids
Just like they would
If ever they shed tears
When they bruise me
I hurt just like they would
If ever they were hurt
So perhaps I am alien
But they must be some sort too
They say I am alien
‘Cause my skin is brown
And my words are accented
They say I am alien
Since my eyes are brown
And my straightened hair
Is no good when it comes
In contact with water
They say I am alien
Because I speak another
Language, often
Think a certain way and
Dress in foreign clothes
They say I am alien
For I look nothing like them
And perhaps they are right
Except
When they cut me
I bleed just like them
Scarlet red
When they hurt me
I cry
Saline fluids
Just like they would
If ever they shed tears
When they bruise me
I hurt just like they would
If ever they were hurt
So perhaps I am alien
But they must be some sort too
