Difference Poem by elaine geneston

Difference

Rating: 4.8


There is a part of me
That feels I am different from everyone else.
Something that I can’t quite see,
Something that I can’t quite feel,
Something so unreal.
But this ‘thing’ is always there,
This ‘thing’ with others, I will never share.
So I push it to the back of my mind,
All the thoughts of boys and clothes
And make-up, it is hiding behind.
Sometimes, when I have almost forgotten,
It comes back with such ferocity,
Angry and unforgiving.
I feel so lost and sad,
Whatever caused this feeling
Must have been so horrible and bad.
A lost memory or something else,
I’ll never know,
Whatever it is,
I know for sure,
I can never let this feeling show.

it's okay to be different. developing confidence is a must. hiding your true feelings could be depressing. i hope you won't. i know what you are feeling... cheer up or write a lot of poetry. thanks md.

Every individual is different and unique from each other, whatever is that thing you feel within is something real! Maybe, like most girls it has something to do with fear about REJECTION or FAILURE! Hope I am mistaken. High marks.
