different

i feel so different
 like i'm not one of you
is it the shape of my face
 or my height in these shoes?
could it be my job
 or that i do not bleed?
or is it my gaze
 or my expressions of need?
my chest is broad, sure
 but i'm objectified too
is it this bit of loose skin
 that makes me feel so unlike you?
