Oh Different

Excellence Award in the 'Word Zone 2016' competition

Such a struggle as a family feud,
Thickened, with rules for admission
and a sea of troubles, rides with the breath of freedom.
Yet, a hierarchy differentiates a mountain of norm
Which underlines, my one true goal,
Different, odd, insecure - different.
How life isn't the same, as trees are to breath,
In my life, you make me think, oh different.
Nothing stops me to think of the troubles you bring,
But nothing stops me to think of changing, oh different.
