shadow

walking on
in this darkness
blocked by you

no light to lead me
where my destiny calls me

I am blocked by you
whom everyone thinks
is the best

why can't they ever see past
all the useless knowledge
and mirthless jokes
and focus for once on me?

I may not have the brains
but atleast I have the heart

in this world though
no one really cares
about how a heart is
just the outer appearance matters
even if the inside is contradicting

so for now,
until people are unblinded,
I will be in your shadow
walking

    Nice poem (:

    Felt the desperation and the sadness, and the 4th stanza came across as the best for me.

    But there is a lack of flow in some parts.

    For example, the last 2 lines,
    "I will be in your shadow
    walking "
    was a little awkward..
