UNTITLED

....You know those kind of people,
the kind that stay in the shadows of the trees,
the kind that wear sweatshirts and pants in the summer, the kind that talk in hushed tones and only to their fellow comrades,
supposedly talking about the "popular" people.
The kind of people that say what they want to say,
but in different forms,
in poetry,
art.
In writing.
Yeah, those kind of people.
The ones that are ostracised for their individuality, ostracised because they are different.
Yet, they are just like you.
Out of place, in a world where the media dictates,
the librals brain wash,
and yes,
oh yes,
you rely on the opinion of your peers.
Do you care?
We all do.
Even the kind of people that stay in the shadows of the trees.
Should you care?
No.
Not even those who wear sweatshirts and pants in summer,
or those that talk in hushed tones.
It's life.
Live it.
