An Ode to the Outsiders

For the impatient,

for the ambitious,

for the timid,

for the fearful.

To all the introverts

and poets,

for those who feel,

but don't show it.

To the quiet,

to the loud,

to the masses.

I write this to you,

I write this for you.

Here's a nod to the

misunderstood,

a high-five to the

underachiever,

a hug for the lonely,

solace to the scared.

A light in the dark,

shelter in the storm,

the beautiful beyond the norm.

This is what you need to hear,

a steady voice,

a friend is near.

A connection to the disconnected,

I hear you.

If you're on the edge,

let this pull you back.

If you're at the end of

a thread-bare rope...

step back,

step down,

there

is

hope.
