Wild

A poem a wrote about being VERY DIFFERENT from the students at my college

I'm wild
I'm a bird of my own feather
I flock alone
I let my feathers flourish
To help me fly away
Away from this close minded cage
That only sees colors of their own
Black and white, white and green
I'm the flamingo amongst doves and crows
I stand out and above
Here in this foreign land of separatism
I choose not to be the rumor
He said she said
I SAY DIFFERENT!
YOU KNOW NOTHING!
My head will not be hidden in the sand
Nor tucked behind my wings!
I am beautiful!
I am strong!
I am wild!
I refuse to become your Percieved deceptive version of me!
I will not be the parrot for your truth-less gossip!
I am not like you...
I will fly away.
