Hello world!🙋‍♀️😄

How have you all been doing? I just wrote something and would love to share it with you guys. So, here’s my latest poem. I hope you’d like it!😊

They say I’m away from this world.

This isn’t where I belong.

They say I don’t fit in the rhyming scheme of their poems.

But I know, I dwell in the melody of my own song.

I know I’m different,

That I’m not among the nameless crowd.

My uniqueness defines me.

I possess an identity of which I’m proud.

They say I’m too weak.

“Too quick to fall apart!”

That I don’t have the bravery they seek.

“Too coward to leave my mark!”

But I know, my tears hold a fury that no one can match;

My brokenness shows my audacity, that it’s my warrior badge.

I know I’m hurt, yet I survive and continue my way.

I don’t care what the world thinks of me, nor about what they say.

They say I’m not a part of their tribe;

That I lack the familial vibe.

They say I’m a different shape and colour.

But I know my heart holds all the stardust and splendour.

They say I lack beauty;

That I don’t possess the finesse and grace.

 But they haven’t looked inside me.

They don’t know I’m a magical menace.

I know I’m different,

That I’m not among the nameless crowd.

My uniqueness defines me.

I possess an identity of which I’m proud.

They say my life is dull,

That it lacks thrills and fun.

But they haven’t looked close enough,

As they couldn’t see those rainbows and those brilliant shades of the sun.

The subtle happiness I seek, lies at my windowpane.

It often visits me with those trickling drops of rain.

My comfort lies in those small and cosy nooks;

Where I sit, sniff and read, my treasured, priceless books

I know I’m different,

That I’m not among the nameless crowd.

My uniqueness defines me.

I possess an identity of which I’m proud.
