I am special and gifted
I hear myself thinking above everyone else
I see myself with a happy family
I want to be happy with everyone around me
I am special and gifted

I pretend to be something I’m not
I feel like I’m the only one in my world
I touch the hope of my life
I worry that when I wake up everything will be gone
I cry about my deepest feelings
I am special ad gifted

I say one day I will be really happy
I dream about my friends
I try to make a good first impression
I hope I will see my friends again
I am special and gifted
