Description Your eyes are not your own
Your laugh is not your own
Your ambitions are decided by others
Your life is not your own
You think you are different
But what you are is a clone
Your differences are the samenesses
Of your peers
Do not hate me
For looking at you
From me corner
I am the true different
I am the true unique
I am fully me own
And you shall live your life
With your imagined strife

This poem is partly true. I think that everyone is different in their own way and you may be especially different, but I still think everyone is unique in their own way. It seemed that this poem was about someone?

Not about someone, just anyone that does things just to fit in. Overdoes it. Doesn't look at an outcast because of what friends say. Doesn't make up his/her own mind. I was in American Lit I, we were reading Whitman, and I decided to write this poem.

A very true poem

I'm no english savant, but when you say "I am the true different"
shouldn't it be "I am truly different", maybe it's a style thing or I'm wrong, that happens alot.

I like the poem, I think anyone with the spark of wit in them gets very tired of the transient and false front of "social outcast" that some people put on to fit in with the weirdos... weren't we just supposed to accept people as they are, being as we are? Has Alt-culture become prep in better colors? I hope not.

"I am the true different"
Is a style to say that "I am different" but to rephrase it so it wouldn't sound the same as when the false people say it. So I'm saying: I am what defines different.

Yeah. We're supposed to "fit in". I see what people are who fit in and they disgust me.

I thought it might be a style thing, just thought I'd point it out

I never fit in, I was a breach birth, I didn't even want to come out normally LOL
