nonchalant looks

By musicmaker22

the reading of books

and nonchalant looks

has got me up on edge

how do i let

my true colours flow

when i am nothing

but the universe

which is only everything i know

how can i make do

with the unjust

and bias based views

of powers that i know to be true.

i am blind

i am weak

i am a child of unknown beliefs

Wonderfully written, but life is all about being true to ourselves and being who we are mean to be; not worrying about what others think. It’s very difficult to follow on a daily basis, but good to remember! 🙂

I liked this poem quite a bit. The last “i am a child of unknown beliefs” is espeically strong and will stay with me.
