PROMPT #196

There is no restriction on length or format of the piece. There is no last date either, unless you wish to be featured in the Weekly Wrap.

No matter how hard I try, I’ll always be the odd one out

The society judges me by its skewed standards and I don’t fit

Conformation is not my aim nor my desire in life

Being like everyone else never held any appeal for me

I like being different, I like my individuality

If I am a square peg in a round hole, I am rather proud of it

They call me a misfit, and aim to hurt or provoke me

They don’t know that I crave this title, am absolutely good with it

Illusions

Posted on by Reena Saxena

Are we moving up or down? Hold on to what you have, till we find something else. My roots run deep. Being tossed up and down won’t affect me.  Stay where you are. But the structures that stand on your beliefs will change. They look the same. Those are reflections of what you once saw. … Continue reading Illusions
