Curls in a corner
wanting only to be alone
to give things thought,
rolling it over in their mind.
To hide from everyone
to not be seen
sits in the back
like a toy from long unuse.
To be among the poeple
has its rewards,
and yet doesn't always satisfy;
sometimes even stings.
Having friends
that wouldn't approve,
yet know not about the pangs
from being labeled.
Author notes
This is for option number one-the freewrite. It is a rather loose poem, and therefore can be interpreted to however it fits you in your life.

hey
Sorry I judged this contest so late. I had a million and one things to do.
The topic you chose, is one easy to identify with. Though it isn’t an original topic I do think its an original way of writing it.
Love & peace

first off let me tell you that this poem is amazing. i truly loved it and could feel the pain from the words. the only problem with it is that it doesn't rhyme and since im only accepting rhyming poems this one will not do for this contest. im am extreamly sorry
