Unrealistic Expectations?

I dare not hope to expect

Human sympathy and acceptance

The awkwardness of being different

Invades your sacred space

Have you ever never understood

Love

Sympathy

(and) Grace

I dare not wish for change

Human empathy and tolerance

The pain of being open and honest

Makes you uncomfortable

Have you never encountered

Absolution

Reconciliation

(and) Acceptance

I dare not try to comprehend

Human distance and selfishness

The bravery to embrace abnormality

Makes you stronger

Have you never thought about

Joy

Truthfulness

(and) Spirituality
