Introverted Extrovert

I am...
Strange,
Wonderful,
Annoying,
Depressing,
Weird,
Confused,
Cynical,
Random,
Completely unfocused,
Unhinged,
Disassociate,
A loner yet still sociable,
Complex yet undeniably simple.

A walking contradiction.

I am human.
I am me in all my misunderstood glory.
I find the world is a far nicer place inside my head.

I'm the introverted extrovert.

I'd rather be hated than loved.
Love always leads to disillusionment.
Innocence is dead.

The world surrounds me
Yet doesn't want me.
I am free yet bound by someone elses rules.
I am a being that feels.
A being that bleeds.

I dream.
I hope.
I cry.
I laugh.
I understand.

    Me too
    But I think I would rather be loved than hated. It depends. I once said I would rather be respected than loved and that's probably still true

    I like this write.

    Good -Worth a 2nd read

    Your last verse is a summary - 3 lines of the poem you wrote, 2 lines of where you're trying to go with it. You did a good job of expressing frustration without pulling me into your inner fight.
