That package with such lovely wrapping
Features that elicit praise and garner wishes
Real easy on the eye is the catch-phrase here
Yet there you are, in MY pretty, very ugly
Worn and tattered, this box doesn't, can't belong
Not quite reaching a point of desire or even need
Ew, look, oh my god are the now too loud whispers
And here I am, in your loathing, simply...lonely
A mind so closed, a black hole for understanding
Can't take a chance on being wrong; to stop the hurt
The mouthful of marrow-seeking barbs fly free
Your eyes just won't ever let your heart see
Though the stares stab at who I am or could be
Silence is how I respond to all the unmerited anger
Words most unkind, strip my flesh, shred my soul
I am not a freak for banishing your bored amusement
I'll try not to stumble whenever I'm passing near
My face'll be hidden to hide my tears of shame and pain
I promise never to drown you or anyone with them
Just stop reminding me of my not fitting in...please

this poem makes me feel sad that people can't except the differences in others... although the mood of the poem is sad, you do show conviction that you are who you are despite the rejection you experience.
Nicely done,
~Mark~ |

*stands up and claps* Right on, brother, right on. People are so judgmental. I try not to let it bother me when people laugh at my clothes, or my opinions, but yeah sometimes...folks make me wonder. I believe we are all connected in this web of life....hard to understand how we as humans can be so divided.
Great write, full of passion.
Peace,
Laura |
