I Am A Weed

I dare not try to justify my needs.
All that goes in my mind,
All I dare not understand.
When I utter a word,
A word of capability.
I am shunned.

A weed, nonetheless.
But a weed still I be,
I can bend the will of the world,
Everytime I deem it.
And I need utter no capable word,
For I am an outcast by nature.
And hence so I will choose,
Such which none could ever attempt.

I will choose the choices the world needs,
What I deserve, I do not see.
Who am I to decide,
What is right and what is wrong.
Nobody.

But a nobody can risk his sanity for a reason,
A reason why all exists.
Who am I to decide what goes for the world?
I am non-existent,
I am ignored.
I am an enigma,
Turned on all I know.
I am a catalyst,
Breaking down rules.
Forming anew, what should and would be true.
I am a weed,
Unwanted, unneeded.

So I can do something,
None can attempt.
I can shun time,
Stand while the hours pass me by.
I can do something noone ever can.
So I matter.

I am who I am.
I am invincible.
I am weak,
And so I will defeat,
What dares to oppress by pride beneath.
I will be shunned,
I am hated.
I am....
Melody.

Us

Many people feel weak and small, as they are just one in over 7 billion. Many people feel useless because the universe is so much bigger than we are, and we are as if a grain of sand.

A Watermelon

If I was a fruit I would be a watermelon. Hard on the outside. Inside so mellow. The green on the outside will be my cover. For the inside color I will save for my lover.

The Stranger Known As You

They say "You," I say what. They repeat, "yes, You" I say "You who?" So They check my vital signs And say, You are alive.

The Sea Of Possibilities

I sail across the sea. In my silver sailing boat. Knowing I can be. Whatever as I float. I see amazing images. Appear before my eyes. A little bit of synergy. To weave as I go by.

Why Ask Why?

Searching for a meaning when there's none to be found. Struggling to survive till you're six feet under the ground. There's more to life than figuring out what's in death.

A myriad of colours make up our life; A composite for every emotion. Sombre shades for darker times; Vivacious tones for love and devotion.

She's Alive.

Someone said I could dream like only I want to. They said that I had quite the style to be a ghost. They said I was pure in my ways of love and rotten in my ways to live.

I enjoyed this it's very self inflicting, drawing on negative points. I liked it very creative like how used the weed as a metaphor very natural and suggestive ๐Ÿ˜Š great stuff

@aleishagayle20 the judge has spoken :) stablish's turn

Just wanted to add why are you searching for fame? You have decant posts with a good amount of post seems like you don't need it ๐Ÿ˜Š

I'm not searching for fame, @aleishagayle20 .. In opuss it is the ultimate prize though :)

@melody not really for me it's being around people who don't think I'm a freak or weird when I express myself regardless of the kind of post I put up and also finding similar people ๐Ÿ˜„ there are so many incredible creative talented people on here it's incredible and that's the prize for me ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

๐Ÿ† here you are though if it makes you feel accomplished

@melody believe it or not, my rank just happened, I just filled a gap and was lucky that people started following. My positive outlook must be working and bringing me luck.That's not to say I don't want fame, it's always been my dream, sometimes I don't even k

@aleishagayle20 Let me juggle your reason. Here where I live, Im probably a bigger freak than you may dream to be, but Opuss is a second chance for all who come to be. It isn't our experience that decides who we are, though it kind of shapes us as we go along :) it is the moments where we can look into a mirror and say, "I did it" that make us. I am searching for quite a few things. So in a battle where we cannot exchange prizes in real...what better prize to receive?

Know why I keep following it. It might just be coming whether I want it or not, maybe I'm crazy? I don't know really but all I know is I'm me๐Ÿ˜ƒ

I love it by the way๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Distracted me from reply and dinner though๐Ÿ˜ƒ

@Stablish What if someone doesn't like what is " cool "? What if someone doesn't fit into the pattern of living as all do? What if someone questioned why anything exists at all? Ill tel

you what. That someone is made an outcast by all, and even those who haven't met him...or her..,just feel a difference. One of the things I am searching for is someone who understands that difference,

@Stablish thankyou :) your turn. @aleishagayle20 it didn't make me feel accomplished.

Great poem, I love anything to do with weed ๐ŸŒด๐Ÿšฌ

@melody okay maybe you are life's always struggle and finding yourself look if your writing for you that's fine but don't let society's expectation label you or restrict your voice or opinions that's all I'm saying. I get it all the time in weird goth freak etc so what that's me I'm on here write whatever and carry on rankings don't mean anything to me all about meeting people but I get what your saying enjoyed this poem was a good read ๐Ÿ˜Š
