I sit there
All is quiet
All is still
In my world

They sit there
Noise buzzing
People all around
In their world

I move
No one notices
No one cares
In my world

They move
People notice
People care
In their world

I go to talk
But what's the point
They don't want me
In their world

They go to talk
But what's the point
I don't want them
In my world

At least I'm happy there!!!!

Brilliant! I love this. So true in so many ways. Who wants to live in a world where you can't be yourself? If you can't be yourself...what's the point in being YOU!? If you pretend to be someone you're not...you just end up with lots of things in your life that you don't really like...but are too stubborn/afraid to admit it.

Hi Witch,
Your words really struck a chord with the younger me that lives inside the woman that I am now, so I hope you don't mind me writing a reply.
Your words really time warped me back, nicely done!

Dear Witch,
I read your words,
So clear and plain.
And tell you,
I have felt the same.

Until a lesson
Learnt one day,
Transformed the world
In which we play.

When obviously
You don't belong,
Remember;
You are right not wrong.

You words have worth,
Your feelings too,
And out there,
There are more like you.

Don't waste your time
On those who can't,
But rather
Tell them, 'No I shan't!'

I shall not waste
My time on you,
On all the
Pointless things you do.

Now this new world,
My life, my rules,
Has happily
Removed the fools.

And looking out
With different eyes
I see a world
Without their lies.

I see a world
With more like me,
With minds
That rainbow bright, can see.

I hope your world
Is just like mine,
And soon,
A universe you'll find ;)

Ooh...I was telling legostan about a poem I had written that was similar to his. It's also along the same lines as this one of yours. When I get back to my pc tomorrow, I'll make sure I find it and post it. I was always being criticized for being 'too happy'. In the end, I couldn't bear the constant nagging. Since when was being too happy ever a crime? Don't think so! Ahahhhh!!

Tanza,

Stay happy, I've never worked out how. Seem to have been on a negativity path since childhood.

But maybe here will help.

Its quite a sense of relief to get everything out my head.

I remember negativity...it was a very annoying and unwelcome guest until I booted everyone out of my life who tried to make me feel ashamed of who I am. Then it was bye bye them and hello ME!

Sometimes we rely far too much on what other people think of us and not enough on what we think of ourselves. If you think you're a pretty decent person, then you probably are!

You're obviously very creative. Ignorant people hate that.

Whatever you do, don't live your life to please other people, or you'll get to the end of it and realize you haven't even lived...and THAT's just sad!
