Long Outcasted Poems

Adoptee Victim of the Holidays by Corey Quinn (Chaotic rhyme scheme to match my emotional state)

As I enter the home to over salted deviled eggs, loud dogs and poisonous side conversations,
the adoptive family quickly unleashes...

I cling to my ignorance
and stay close to my ways
for what I write will never change
my heart is unable to set me free
to become the child I wish to be
my innocents was stolen
and I never...

You're a little bit twisted,
I died and survived
and still couldn't resist it.
Devalued myself each minute
I tried to get it
but I'd swear I'd up and quit it
until the high wore off I'd fidget and go ballistic.

When we were nine
and yearning, outcasted
I did not understand the bruised
nature of your soul. Perhaps I
do not understand even now.
I remember
how I criticized you for the way 
you sang "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star"
in your warbling...

They try to tell us we need therapy,
that these feelings are unnatural.
The small minded are trapped in the mechanism of a robot
thus their attack of judgment are so practical
The union of two spirits should...

I am still alone.
They really don’t know anything.
They say that they understand.
That it’s wonderful.
but then they pass on by
and don’t say a word.
They don’t include me
and if they do
they treat me like I’m not there.
Maybe...

She endured trauma as a child, that shut down her mind
Without safe adults, there was no security to find
She played outside and pretended to run away
She prayed and God answered, he heard what she had...

Why is it that society must outcast?
The man who stays up, alone, at 2 in the morning, is no less a man than the 
    one who sleeps with his lover, soundly....

Dear Lord
This is my minority report
my people have been outcasted
food and water is short.
Population persecution set up for political power
so my people bear their fate, in their faith
in search of a higher power.

Up and Down
Happy and Sad
Sky to the Ground
Ecstatic then Depressed...
I feel like a roller coaster,
On a never ending track.
A smile is more than I can handle
When I feel attacked,
Ignored and Outcasted
Boiling and Frustrated
Just go away,
So...

in the quick-cut-spliced-split-beamed-flashed n’flickering
we’re both now nothing more than a hypersupermegasearch

A flame of enigma bellowed in the pit of his belly,

its' seraphic luster so stout.

It peered through the windows of his body,

through dark stagnant eyes that rest mounted on his face,

so carved and clencted.

I blanched...

I'm on that stupid mode!
Ignorance shooting like haters:
No wars, no conflicts...
Running in circles: "Ain't that Ouroboros"
I know Venus scared of snakes,
Hence the circle we always have to draw!

Whoa! creepy nights as moon crescent appears, 
waning...,...

All time and effort lay, all that's best prayed
My one last say to be at last safe and paid
Though I got strayed and had been left to right swayed
All that's best prayed, all time and...

Understood like written opinions in the dark.
This fine line of cultural barriers.
Controlled by our mental description of perfect.
Who is perfect?
Who has the right to judge my look, then, assume it goes with my personality.

My own maze of a
mind is dangerous

a moment of fresh
air, and on the edge

and suddenly I
question death

For who am I to
think that I can
defy the normality
of life?

In a strange path I
walk, but where are
those who...

Anxiety. 
A feeling that overwhelms your senses.
Blood pressure rising. Breathing becoming uncontrolled. You feel it in your chest, a pressure so heavy you can’t help but give in. A pressure that consumes your mind, thoughts,your...

Like fine wine,
She's an acquired taste.
Some will like her,
Others will not.

They can take her 
In small sized portions,
Samples,
Or one sip at a time.
Not a full glass,
And never in one go.

She may be
What they want at...

My mind invaided with overwhelming thoughts.
I don't care, I surrender my clean streak.
I climb up the stairs at a complete loss, 
And retrieve the blade that I often seek.

It hovers inches above my scarred skin,
