Cry From An Outsider

I hope you realize
that behind these crazy eyes
can you find
something cute and cuddly in a somewhat mad disguise
Somewhere deep inside
the ways of my insanity lies
a nice and friendly mind that's one of a kind
But have you stopped and tried
to find the gentle one inside?
Or even give me some attention
when I break down and cry?
You claim you don't have time
and I can even get by
that fact that I am shy
But that is something that you have to ask yourself why
I don't thrive
in criticizing everything around
It's just a way for me to stay alive
questioning the things that doesn't make sense in my mind
But it's hard to survive
when I'm left without advice
and even get declined
to be a part of your life
because you think that I should be institutionalized
Perhaps you can seek
something beyond the freak, so to speak
before my eyes start to leak
So try
please try
to find the loving part of me
hidden deep inside
A part of me that try
to hide
from the evilness
that makes me cry
And i claim
once again
that I am merely misunderstood
and not insane

Eli The PoetBay support member heart!
I have always seen the inner beauty being expressed through your words. People don't tend to look though, and although that may cause further sadness, it is most certainly not a fault of yours.

A great write, young man! I must admit to finding myself a little intimidated by those eyes of yours, on numerous occasions, I have clicked on you and clicked off, before even reading, something about those eyes that put the fear god in a reader such as Tai. I was missing the point of your poetry, glad I chose, now, to missing that point.

A really good read, straight from your wild eyes and open heart.

Merry Christmas to you

Tai, and her gang of merry gentlemen
