&quot;Everyone is different, it&#039;s the natural state- it&#039;s the facts, it&#039;s plain to see. The world&#039;s gray enough without making it worse. What we need is individuality!&quot;<br /> - Billy Elliot&#039;s &quot;Expressing Yourself&quot;

This poem should be beautiful and mesmerizing.
This poem should express my undying love for you.
This poem should explain that, no matter what, I'll always be with you.
This poem should have meticulously chosen metaphors and similes, describing my feelings.
This poem should remain in your head even when I'm not there.
This poem should reflect all our good times together.
But it doesn't.
