A Dream

This is a free verse poem.

No one seemed to notice.

They all probably didn’t even care.

He had problems

Some that no one had ever heard of.

Misunderstood was he.

 

He was different.

For awhile he hated it.

He wanted to be normal.

His wish could never come true.

He then accepted it.

 

He was different, and weird.

Now he wouldn’t want it any other way.

For he is proud of who he is.

He is proud of his disabilities.

Still wishing for a cure for each.

 

Still wanting people to understand.

Yet it wasn’t up to him.

He prayed for the cure.

Hopefully one day it will become a reality.

 

Not just a dream.

Not sure if one could be proud of a disability .. But he could be brave and courageous ..and accept his lot in life .. and smile and love, just as everyone else could ..

Thoughts to ponder .. Jazz :)

But i am proud to have it because with out it i wouldn't have been able to meet any of my great friends now. would my life have been easier without it? Yes! but still proud to have it.

Great piece.
You have successfully depicted a person who is struggling to be normal.
You may check the spelling of , "Miss understood."
