Not many people will be able to relate to this poem, I wrote it for true social misfits like myself :rolleyes:
I am unfit for this world
Cursed with learning problems
And rendered morbid with physical ones
It feels hopeless at times for me to make an effort
I try and try to make my social life work
In spite of logic and likelihood of success
I fight daily a losing battle,
Against my weaknesses
I try to socialize and feel like a burden
Unwanted, inexperienced, unacceptable company
Don't worry, I won't inconvenience you
By trying to be your friend
I know you look at me wishing I'd leave
Forgive my having had the nerve to speak to you
The last thing I want is to bother you
I'm leaving, enjoy your day.
I feel wonderful just being able to talk to you
And to think you enjoyed the conversation
Blissful moments in a life of isolation
Charity, I know you were just being nice.
Is there something wrong with me?
Am I nature's mistake?
Am I the one who exists for you to appreciate
The aptitude and social life you possess?
I know that you find me incompetent and morbid
I know that I am such, but I'm still a person
I have problems, certainly, but I also have feelings
How can you know the feeling of worthlessness
I am a boulder in a field
A frog in a fish tank
A dog among arrogant felines
A misfit among the acceptable
I am truly alone
Lonely, bored, agitated
Seeking self improvement in solitude,
Making no impact upon the world.
I am unfit for this world
Cursed with learning problems
And rendered morbid with physical ones
It feels hopeless at times for me to make an effort
I try and try to make my social life work
In spite of logic and likelihood of success
I fight daily a losing battle,
Against my weaknesses
I try to socialize and feel like a burden
Unwanted, inexperienced, unacceptable company
Don't worry, I won't inconvenience you
By trying to be your friend
I know you look at me wishing I'd leave
Forgive my having had the nerve to speak to you
The last thing I want is to bother you
I'm leaving, enjoy your day.

Making no impact upon the world.
