Destroying the bridges to your fold.

A state of perseverance,
I’m outcast from the fold,
Outside Interference,
  shouldered, cold,
Shunned from your society,
I’m living all alone,
Worship you with piety,
I’m just another drone,
Expelled from your utopia,
I’m just a vagabond,
Lonely and prone to fear,
I’m just a teardrop in a pond,
Crossing different bridges,
Taking different roads,
Isolated by these ridges,
Watch as our love corrodes,
Keep on walking past me,
Turn and look away,
Will you ever forgive me,
Can I look forward to that day,
Say that you still care,
Or that you do not at all,
Say that you will be there,
Or that I drive you up the wall.

Andrew.

I liked it but i have read better from you. Well done though.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

I didn't think it was too great myself, I think it's because the ending is a bit inconclusive.     Still a work of art though.

Concieted??  Impossible!  That would be a fault!

You've done much better work than this but this is still a decent poem.  i think if you worked on the ending a little it would be much better.

Sometimes, the things that go unsaid are the only things worth hearing.

I've seen better poetry from you, but this was still pretty good.
Keep sharing.
