The Silent Misfit

Craved to be accepted
cramned into the corner
of unacceptence
hating the organizers
the inhuman perfectionist
cause they’re the ones
that gives the misfit
a world of hurt
the silent misfit

tears frozen
from coldness inside
disturbed looks
that pierces the harmful ones
so much to say
intimidated to speak a word
shut down with rejection
the silent misfit

stays away from the infamous
remains annonomys
self-doubt circles around in mind
hypnotyzing the rest
the silent misfit

make no mistake
the perfect are not the best
too cruel to realize
what they’ve done
face the enemies
dominate your soul
you’ll be seen as
the luminous
the daring
Silent misfit

oh well said!

your work shows a maturity beyond your years. A couple of spelling things, unacceptence, annonomys. Not sure about the line "dominate your soul", is that what you really meant? cheers, Jess

Awesome Nessa!

Don't know if the soul can be dominated maybe the sprit broken or set free but anyhow I know what you mean and was absorbed with "The Silent Misfit" Joy and Peace, Mark
