Freak Poem by Damian Fisher

I'm a loser, I'm a freak
In your shadow is where I sleep
I feel like such a disgrace
God dammit why do you choose to stay

My mind is tainted, my body's weak
I don't know how you could fall in love with me
You grabbed my hand, I began to cry
I dropped to my knees and told you why

My heart is broken, I feel alone
I too scared to see what love may hold
You seem so perfect in every way
While imperfection flows through my veins

She held me close and began to whisper
You and I are not so different

You and I are certainly alike
We hide, we cry, we're locked up tight
I look up and see someone so strong
Still strong at heart though it's hurt so long

You're not a loser, you're not a freak
All i want is for you to see
Is it really that hard to understand
I stay because your the perfect man

In shock I stared i could not speak
Could it be that this was destiny
It's got to be some sort of trick
But I've never ever felt like this

I closed my eyes and turned my back
I cracked a smile and began to laugh
This could be the world's most perfect sin
I guess we'll never know unless we begin

The days turned to weeks, the weeks turned to months
I still don't understand why I love her so much
It's been so long since I could rhyme
But I get so inspired when I look into her eyes

I still remember our first kiss
I couldn't stop shaking I was so nervous
I felt her heart beat from within her chest
The war inside me had gone to rest

I looked at her she looked at me
There was no way this could could be a dream
I felt so normal like nothing was wrong
A freak no more I knew I belonged
