National Poetry Writing Month is nearly at end. To celebrate it, try your hand at some verse.
Standing outside
Myself wanting
To fit in but
Every spot I
Try holds me
In fear creating
A backing a way
Back to the corner
I see labeled for me
I want more
I want what they have
But what is it that
Draws me to them
That I am lacking
Oh, you say
To only smile
And say a kind word
And people will
Come to me
And want to
Fit into my space
To know who I am
I will try as I
Have not succeeded
Being in their shoes
I will try to
Just to be myself………
