A Shadow
I feel so easily dismissed even by those I would have once called friend. I'm so unimpactful although in my heart I know I have so much to offer. My mind sings with art, poetry, love and a desire for understanding of my fellow man. I wear my heart on my sleeve and although people tell me its a weakness, I see it as my strength. I feel if I change that, I would have failed at being me. Its who I am. Or at least its all I've ever been. But when all walk by unseeing as I overflow and awash the floor, I can't help but feel empty. Like the shadow of something beautiful that people pass through without notice, not realizing its cast from a thing of substance. Not just a shadow. Does only light stop for me? Or am I just getting in it's way? I want so badly to be a part of the flow, but I am not water, nor air, nor earth. Maybe I am fire doomed to consume itself in all its beauty with no one to bask in its warmth or hold it in their memory.

I grew up in a abusive household yet I never had a angry bone in my body, sure I'm able to spin off horror stories like it's my unkle but I'm very kind hearted and patient very laid back, the exact oppisit of the enviroment I grew up in, in school alot of people complain and say how life is so hard yet deep down I know they dont know what its really liek to struggle. to have to fight for somthing they truly desire when I was growing up I knew I wasnt like my family so I felt I had to protect the part of me I charised most my kindness and my love thenĀ when I moved out I wanted to share it with everyone only I came on so strong with people they go the wrong idea I was just being nice, I wasnt coming onto them or anything so I guess I'm saying I really get were yor coming from and I like your story.
Thanks, that day IĀ was trying to establish my right as a canadian to protect my family from potential fallout, as we apparently not allowed to purchase certian preping supplies, (like water filters for radiation) I kept trying to get a responce from somebody but no one including my friends were willing to listen. I was feeling sad and voicless that day. As I do many days. n a way its nice to know that im not the only one who feels this way. on the other hand i wish for no one to ever feel like that. I would rather it was just me.
