Untitled

Bound in this world

of societal dictates

Cast adrift

into a sea of loneliness

Driven to fit in

but always a step out of pace

This ocean of madness

I'm without a place

Granted a fortuitous life,

forced to bear many great burdens.

A tenacious grip that holds

and chastised thoughts,

that won't allow me to give up.

Shoulders have broadened

and a back, never broken.

A constant will of defiance,

with a high price payed

to fears never spoken

Author's Note

any constructive criticism is welcome

Those last two stanzas could almost stand alone. Some really powerful ideas here, good write
