Wishing for Insight

Tracing my steps,

Forward and back.

I cannot see,

Why they laugh.

I don't want to stare at them,

But they stare at me,

Am I different?

Or is it destiny?

My sight stretches longer 

And longer by the hour,

But I don't care.

It's not my power.

They can laugh

All they want.

They can breath

And I can stomp.

I can scream 

And they can jump.

I'll put them,

In the dumps.

It's only,

Because they did it first.

I have insight

And it's a curse.


The water on the window,

Blurs the lines together.

It's like I'm fragile,

It's like I'm a feather.

Sitting around does nothing for me.

It only makes me think,

Makes me emotionally 

On the brink.

It's a dangerous road 

That I cannot follow.

As much as I want to,

So long as I am hollow.

The next day,

They looked at me again,

But it was different

They didn't depend,

On what it was 

I looked like today,

On what the things I said today.

They just wanted to stay away.

The trees still howl,

Like they are lonely,

Just like the night,

I am the only.

 And it's only because,

They did it first,

Not caring 

If I was hurt.


It's hard to be the only star shining ever so bright in the wonderful night sky. The others will burn out, but it's because they don't want to beat your greatness. They gave up trying to match your strength. Keep shining bright.
