How can one change a life time
Of motions and feelings
That never really existed for me
That dictated how my day would be
Obey and listen was all I ever knew
For as far back as can I remember
I closed myself to how other's felt
I would rather walk around like a zombie
Than listen to their complaints about life
Yet I no longer have to hide behind a mask of pain
Why cant I be who I know I can be....
Trying to be normal...was just a myth to me
But reality has reared its ugly head...
It scares the life out of me
Can you tell me what normal means to you
Never understand what that word really means...NORMAL
Can you explain that to me
Just trying to be normal feels like make believe
Just wondering....can you help me? ? ?
just wondering, good one, thanks. Please read my poems and coment.
Just like beauty normal is in the eye of the beholder. There really is not a scale for normal. Every person is unique in ever way. Just be yourself! Nice write.
It's a wonderful poem, it touched me. Your heart speaks through these words and I hope everybody can listen. The title is appropriate and the poem underneath flows naturally like a river. The lapping of water on the shores resonate. Well done! I've rated the poem 10/10. Do not brood over it, just flow on! I think that is normal.
Being normal is being not perfect but has the drive to correct it!
Being NORMAL to me is being courageous to be you not necessarily following the bandwagon. A nice piece of poetry. Keep it up.
And when did mediocrity and banality become a good aspiration? Love this poem. Peace.

Great writing! As for what is and is not normal? I believe every person has their own definition of normal. Don't fret over it! Just keep writing!
