Is it normal not to feel acceptable?
My common nicknames are
"Death metal chick"
"Freak"
"Lesbian"
But the thing is, I'm not any of those.
I don't like death metal. Most of it just hurts my ears and brings unsettling thoughts into my head. The only music I listen to is classical. (And the occasional electro-swing) I don't consider myself a freak either. I'm unusual, but certainly not a freak. Sure, I draw things borderline macabre, and prefer the company of my characters, but it's not like I flaunt it. I don't say- OH HAY GUIEZ I HAV IMAGINRY FRENDS LOOKIT IM SO RANDOMM LOLZ
I am not a lesbian, nor will I ever be. I like men. Not like other girls though. Anthony Hopkins makes me feel unlike I ever have. I desperately want to be with him, I have no idea why. Keith Carradine even, I just... Adore older men. (Oh and Michael Fassbender OHOHOHO~) I dress like.. I don't even know? I love unisex clothing. But even though I consider myself genderless, it's not like I don't enjoy feeling pretty. I wear corset like tops sometimes, and indulge in the preppy sinfulness of Forever21. I'm very quiet, and in a way.. Socially retarded? Whenever I speak, I intend to speak softly, precociously, but when the words come out, they're clumsy and loud. Why can't I just be emotionless? Even devoid of a soul? Being as religious as I am in such an urban, high crime area, I made fun of frequently for it. And I am tortured for being abstinent and fairly wealthy? I mean, (pardon my language) what the fuck? Am I a loser for not being an atheist marijuana smoking whore? What the hell?
Am I the freak,
Or are my peers the ones who need to shape up?
