Come home later,
Ditch life’s ladder
Search for better,
Though it is wrong.

You should leave but,
Stay a while.
Stay for style.
Worry not about drowning
Darling, we’re strong.

Let’s go,
Unfinished importance became normal:
Homework, sleep, curfew
Or melancholy’s lasso
We’re born to endure long.

Rise to a drowsy sun
Embrace its dark glory like nuns.
We’re in the low, but have found its upper.
Not doing your forward,
We’re different.

High or below,
Homie, we’re strong.
Like a song.

I Was an Outsider

I was an outsider.

I wasn’t part of any group
Or a ride with anyone.

I was alone. To
Lead my own life. To
Trace my own path
I didn’t belong anywhere; to any group

I don’t belong.

I don’t feel accepted in my family
I don’t feel accepted by my friends
I don’t
Feel accepted
In my race.
My gender doesn’t accept me

And I don’t accept my sexuality.

I’m an outsider.
Fighting for nothing
Fighting for everything.

As I settle into adulthood, I am realizing that I have less room to make mistakes. I am also realizing that instead of living in fear, I should have been more open to making mistakes, while taking as many risks as possible, when I was younger. Therefore, I wrote this poem to express my sentiments towards this realization. Thank you for watching and please comment your thoughts!
