» Poem: The Human Race
The Human Race
written by psycho_bunny

I stand upon a mountain top,
staring down at the human race,
piering at their lies, their confusion and broken dreams.
I see the fear inside their eyes,
I hear the anger in their voices,
I know the pain the hide so dearly,
because their pain is also mine.

I escape the human race,
by standing on my mountain top,
seperate from the others,
alone and yet in their wake.

I am different from them yes,
and yet some traits remain the same,
it makes me feel disdain,
knowing that I share their weaknesses,
perhaps their fate.

I wish there was a way to know,
who will make it and succeed,
and who will simply disappear,
as if never seen,
gone as if from a dream.
But this I cannot know,
and my worries begin to grow...

If I am so different why do they fallow my lead?
If I am so different why do they admire me?
Why do they put me down,
yet ask for my attention?
I am part of their world... And yet I am not,
I feel like a misplaced knot,
am I one of them?
Or am I not?

Author's footnotes and comments on this Poem:
I am who I am... Yet I do not know what that means.
This poem represents the confusion of fitting in with the crowd and standing out.
I stand out, but yet I am not the same as the rest them... So that poses a question, where do I really belong?
