Odd objective

    So odd is the objective of being
a solo minded one. Why does that
shock such as you? Can I not be loyal?

    So dreamy are the eyes and yet so
real are the hopes. What you say won't
tear me down. I will not let the
negative perspective rule my light.

   So here I am uncontrolled by the
distant feelings and lost frowns. I
still smile now. Did you expect me to
lead my life as you do?

   Twirling inside my world. I don't let
the shadows of the hints you pushed
at me destroy my hope. I may have
placed you in an odd moment. Yet you
did it to yourself by assuming something
of me.

   Dare I strike your thoughts down.
Dare I corner you. Dare I make you
something you are not. No. Have you,
yet, learned about me?

  Indeed I pushed and I expect the
normal from you. I understand that is
how you are. I have observed. I smile.

  I don't dare try to control you. It isn't
who I am. Never had that power. Nor
have I earned an inch of that privilege.

  I accept. Yet I am allowed to hope.
Yes I am allowed an unrealistic view
of a dream. Even though I know it is
just that, a dream but it is mine.
Not yours.

   I will not be sorry. I cannot be trampled
on just for making you feel strange.
So live with it or carry on.
