FRAGMENTED SOUL

When you don’t fit, when they divide,
In a world where sameness they abide.

Among familiar faces, I’m a bit unknown,
Lost in a big crowd, feeling all alone.

Within my weary soul, a sense of lack,
Longing for acceptance, under their attack.

My thoughts wander, they don’t align,
A solitary path is what I must define.

Uniqueness is at times vain,
And society’s expectations cause me pain.

Refusal’s cut runs deep and steep,
Isolation’s wounds, secrets I keep.

Whispers of my ideas, like the wind they fade,
Dismissed, ignored, as if they betrayed.

But deep inside, a spark of light ignites,
Resilience awakens, fueling my fights.

Indeed, there is a comfort in being alone,
For you know, your soul is safely home.

In time with me, happiness is what I see,
Because my favorite person, it’s just me.

So when you don’t fit, let your spirit soar,
Embrace the beauty at your very core.

In your journey, you’ll come to find,
A unique masterpiece of yourself, of divine design.
