This poem is for all those who are debarred from the "social circle" for certain physical differences or are labelled based on their physical traits.
*********************************************************
So what if I was told that I am what they call "obese",
So what if with popularity I'm not at ease,
So what if my skin is not the desirable colour,
You won't get it-you can't mould my demeanour.
Yes,you did make from me tears appear,
Yes,you were successful in inspiring my last failure,
Yes-you did give me a few wounds here and there,
Bu thanks-you didn't realize that your torture taught me to bear.
Debarred,If like you and a million others I couldn't be,
Charred,just for being me!
Scarred and penetrated with a blade-the result of your words,
Marked with the label "WEIRD" for not walking with the herds.
I've heard it before- "your dreams are just too big",
I've heard it before-"to make them come true,you just don't have the thing!
I've heard all of it "YOU ARE JUST NOT CAPAPABLE!"
All I'll say- Your tiny mind is too mediocre to process ,it was you wavering,I was stable.
I don't care what your words convey,
I don't bother to get caught in the games you play,
I don't get it how your maze doesn't wither,
How much ever you try,you won't see-"I AM NOT YOUR MIRROR!"
