I am a social outcast
and all I can do is try to outlast
all those whom I can't pass.

It's like a beautiful summer day,
when all I do is lay
in the grass and dream about the past.
The days in which my life has become a haze
I am lost in my own ways,
stuck in an intellectual maze,
and it's all because I don't want to be part of the latest craze.
Do I deserve praise?
Only if I continue without following others ways.

I live my life in seclusion
and other people view me as if I am an illusion.
Other people seem to be suffering from dillusion,
because I wish it was truely possible to create nuclear fusion,
then they'd be the ones losin'.

You've really cracked good poetic rhyme. For my own taste, it's perhaps a little overdone, but it certainly doesn't feel like the amateurish, formulaic rhyme that people often use, so thats a plus. There's a lovely rhythm to this piece, and although I can't read it aloud [I'm in a public library], I have a feeling that this would be a brilliant spoken word poem, because it has the sort of repetitive, hard-hitting pace which lends itself well to vocalisation. So technically, this is very good.

BUT---I don't really understand it. What's it's point? Forgive my ignorance, but it feels a little like you wanted to produce something that sounded really good [and it does], but gave alot less thought to what you actually wanted to say. Or maybe I'm just dumb.

Linds.
