"My time is Different than Yours"

Theresa McMillan

 I live on a different time table. I was born with a time clock that runs slower than other human clocks. It’s not easy at times trying to understand this world’s time. I struggle to keep  up with the immortal ticking sound but to no avail.

When everyone says, “Hurry Up!” I want to say, “Slow down! I can’t keep up!”

"I’m Pretty in My Own Way”

Theresa McMillan

I’m pretty in my own way

That’s what I want to persuade!

I know I have eccentric behavior

Please look on it in good favor

It may take me time

To understand the world’s rhyme

I may live in a slower pace

And don’t rush in such haste

I’m pretty in my own way

Don’t want to live in false in society

And lose all my identity

Please cherish my unique outlook on life

My views may seem simple and small

But all I care about is...
