The Misunderstood

I added part of this poem in the limerick comp, but his is the whole poem.

I HAVE A LITTLE PROBLEM

THAT NO ONE COMPREHENDS

IT GETS ME INTO TROUBLE

I OFTEN LOOSE MY FRIENDS


I AM LEFT BEWILDERED

AND WONDER WHAT IS WRONG

WHEN SUDDENLY I’M SCREAMED AT

AND FRIENDSHIPS COME UNDONE


A TINY THING TO OTHERS

WILL BECOME TOO BIG FOR ME

SOME THINGS BECOME OBSESSIONS

I AM NEVER TRULY FREE


I AM NOT AWARE OF COLDNESS

THOUGHTLESSNESS OR SUCH

I TRY HARD TO BE THE NORMAL

BUT SOMETIMES IT’S TOO MUCH


GOOD FRIENDS ACCEPT ME

TAKING GOOD WITH THE BAD

THEY NEVER LET ME DOWN

OR LEAVE ME FEELING SAD
