WHAT MAKES ME A PERSON? IS IT MY STRIVE TO HOLD ON THE LOOSE GRIP I HAVE? WHAT MAKES ME INHUMAN? IS IT THE WAY I THINK, IS THAT WHY I’M CONSIDERED DIFFERENT? MY LACK OF FRIENDSHIP? I CAN CONTROL MYSELF WITHOUT THEM. I CAN BE MYSELF WHEN I’M ALONE. I THINK THAT’S WHAT MATTERS. BUT OF COURSE YOU WOULDN’T…. BEING THAT I’M DIFFERENT YOU SHOULD TAKE THE TIME TO LOOK AT EVERYONE, AND NOT JUST ME. OR MAYBE JUST LOOK AT YOURSELF. STOP FOCUSING ON ME. I’M NOT YOUR LAB RAT. I’M NOT YOUR ANYTHING. I’M A PERSON. I’M NOT INHUMAN. I AM AN INDIVIDUAL. I CANNOT BE OWNED. I AM MYSELF. AS YOU ARE A CRIDICT. YOU THINK IT’S WRONG FOR SOMEONE TO CRITIZIE YOU. WHEN YOU’RE THE ONE WITH THE REAL PROBLEM. YOU HAVE YOUR FLAWS. I CAN SEE THEM IN YOUR EYES. WHEN YOU LAUGH AT ME. WHEN YOU TRY TO RIP DOWN MY WALLS OF SECURITY. WHEN YOU TRY BREAK DOWN THE ENAMAL OF MY PERSONALITY. I KNOW YOU. AND WHAT YOU’VE DONE. DON’T TRY TO MAKE ME WHAT I’M NOT. YOU JUST WANT TO BE ME. YOU WISH YOU WERE FREE LIKE ME. YOU WISH YOU COULD ACTUALLY BE ME. BUT IT CAN’T WORK IF YOU CAN’T SEE ME THE WAY I DO. QUIT TRYING TO BE ME, YOU’LL NEVER SEE THROUGH. THE WAY I DO. 2.08.02 If we follow the invisible line of hatred, it will lead us straight to our hearts..... and pierce. |

well you told him/her didn't you... one suggestion, you don't need to cap every word..in fact your poem would be intense enough without doing so... I enjoyed your rant. M |
