Catherine Hicks sent us a poem her son, Sam, had written when he was in the 8th grade. It’s amazing the difference a few years can make.
“He is now a thriving college freshman. Mac from New York helped me, as a mother, let Sam leave the nest.”
By Sam Hicks
I am different.
I wonder why I am this way.
I hear people asking me why I look this way.
I see people looking at me anywhere I go.
I want to be normal.
I am different.
I pretend to be normal.
I feel enraged inside.
I worry about who I am going to be like.
I cry when I think about it too much.
I am different.
I understand why I am different.
I say I’m fine when I’m not.
I dream about being normal.
I try to be like everybody else.
I hope they find a cure.
I am different.
You are made in the image of God.. perfect.
