Right Through Me

Sometimes I wonder if I have a place in this world
Everything seems different and no one understands me
If I could invest my time into something meaningful
then perhaps I could garner true happiness
but even if I do, will it just fade with time?

I have trouble fitting in because I
worry everyone will see right through me
I’m not the most secure person
but I try, I try

I care for those who are around me but
they seem to be offended if my sadness takes me over
Just because certain others who were once close
had abandoned me for silly pursuits
It makes me feel I am not good enough

I have trouble fitting in because I
always seemed to be on the outside looking in
I can’t even speak of how I feel
because no one is on my wavelength

and I fear I’ll just be treated like a lost cause

The feeling is familiar.

Your White Gold series was truly remarkable.

I will never for get it.

This flows so well, and it's almost haunting. In a sense.

Well done. As always, really.

[IvorySunshine]

Well, this sounds familiar. I like the dark flowy feelings through this. Great job :)

[Mirra]

The outcast feeling, yeah felt that before. I like the emotion wrapped around the poem. Soft. Masked. Solitary and Sad. Well-expressed.

[Emily]

I like the way you worded it. It's like I could relate to it.

[Cory Barrett]

There is a whole lot of lost feelings going on here. Finding a way to the surface is easiest by floating.

[Girl With A Pen]

Wow, so much emotion that fills each stanza. I think a lot of people feel like this. I know I such have. Great job! :)

[Dark Poet]
