In the dim hours where sunlight falters,
Dwells a being shaped by the hands that fate has molded,
Like Adam, brought forth to stumble, nurtured by pain,
Exiled from joy, bound to solitude.
The world is bright with joy I cannot share,
As I shoulder unseen burdens alone;
Once filled with hope, now heavy with despair,
Ostracised for deeds not my own.
In humanity’s mirror,
I am seen as the monster disdain has formed;
Wrapped in difference, I navigate life’s maze,
A creature made by the weight of rejection.
Through exclusion, you pen my story,
A soul adrift where love alone could bring healing,
Yet judgment’s shadows obscure the bright sky,
And I linger on the edge, yearning for companionship.
Under silence’s cover, my heart beats,
An echo of dreams that once dared to fly,
Yet prejudice’s chains bind every step,
As I stumble through corridors of closed opportunities.
Many times have I watched the embrace of laughter,
Wishing to bask in its warm, radiant glow,
But your whispers, like winter’s harsh breath,
Cling to my spirit, leaving only sorrow.
In gardens where kindness might grow,
I wander like a ghost, unseen and unheard;
For compassion’s gentle whisper is lost in the noise,
Of judgments and labels, sharp as a blade.
I am the unheard echo of stories,
A tapestry woven with threads of despair;
Yet deep within, a flicker remains,
A spark of humanity, precious and delicate.
Remember, dear world, I am human too,
With dreams woven from starlight and hope;
I long for acceptance and grace,
To rise from the ashes, learning to cope.
Within me, warmth persists,
A craving for connection, for hearts to unite;
For beneath the monstrous exterior you perceive,
Lies a soul, a mirror, a spirit pure.
Cast not stones, nor judge by appearance,
For beneath every surface, a story unfolds;
Let love be the bridge that unites us,
And dispel the shadows that foster such fates.
In twilight where the sun’s touch fades,
Let us ignite the flame of empathy;
For when we recall our shared humanity,
We transform darkness into radiant vision.
In unity’s embrace, we shall find our path,
Together we’ll journey through the night;
For united, we can dispel the gloom,
And nurture the seeds of compassion’s strength.
So remember, dear world, within each soul lies a plea,
A yearning for kindness, for warmth, and peace;
I am not a monster, but a heart that can feel,
Remember, I’m human too – let compassion set free.
