Poetry Calling
Hey! So write a poem showing strong sad, despairing, etc. emotions. Don’t make it more than 200 words and it has to be more than 20 words!! Good luck!
loffit in Poetry & Free Verse

Nexus

A point where all things meet,

Except for me.

They said if I tried I would find a way to fit in.

I didn't.

But when I said that out loud, I wondered...

Would people think I meant I didn't fit in,

Or that I didn't try?

And would it really matter?

I mean, really.

If I didn't fit in, there wouldn't be anyone

To care that I did not,

Or would not,

Or could not...

As if parsing the exactitude even mattered.
