Your attire is odd,

But it still expresses you.

Your customs are peculiar,

But you still seek acceptance.

 

Your desires are different,

But you still desire love.

You have Gods,

But we both seek meaning.

 

Your differences are many,

And yet minor.

Your similarities are immeasurable,

And yet paltry?
