Individuality
Intriguing but obscure
A blessing and a curse
It sets them apart from the others
The others don't understand them
The others don't emote like them
Individuality is also rare
Like four leaf clovers
Among a field of wildflowers
Overgrown with others
And little room for the clovers to breathe
Think of the challenges they must face
In efforts to find another with compatible energy to share
Imagine how they must feel
Having to work so hard
Just to be perfectly perceived as themselves
There are others that work
For this exchange of energy
Those others are like clovers too
They just have to find these clovers
They are still looking
