Shedding the shackles of normalcy for the freedom of wings,

Riding on the winds created by all living things,

Transcendence is attained only through you,

If I was alone there would be no reason to,

Try, love, cry, live, learn, dance, or sing,

It’s because of the inner peace each one of you brings,

The world was scary what seems so long ago,

Until I ventured into your world,

I was so lost and in so much pain,

Anger, hate, frustration, totally animosity ruled my heart, 

Until you embraced me and molded it into a work of art,

I traded my fists for glow sticks, silly hats, furry pants, and wide open arms, 

Learned to accept everyone unless they tried to cause harm,

It's been over a precious year, 

Yet I still feel the need for redemption,

For all the pain I have caused, all the hate I have spread,

It is because of you that I am saved,

So I’ll spend all of my days reaching out spreading the love, 

Still nothing ceases to amaze me,

Is the love of the people who get down and get crazy,

When I share my past a tear strolls down your face, 

And gave me a hug I can tell you saw my pain,

Empathy has been your greatest tool, you never judged, instead you jump in my shoes,

You saw my life and felt what I felt,

From that love you have created an intergalactic life form,

One that said take me to your leaders,

After fifteen minutes of them, f**k that give me the people,

With a genuine smile and their hand hearts in the air,

Or riding inflatables without a care,

The weird morphed us into the stellar, 

All are welcome, 

I don't know your name but here’s the best part, 

Go you, your cool, high five everything! Cause this s***s about to start,

Rage on or not at all, doesn’t matter to me,

Cause this wouldn't mean anything without each and every one,

Here is some ice, some water, your starting to look warm,

If something happened to you don't know where we would be,

When all is said and done it isn't done there,

I'm blown away again from the love that you share,

To mother Earth, lady life, the one that keeps rotating around the sun in the sky,

So obviously apparent, it's not about you, it's about us,

There was a grade for life you would get an A++

Author's Note

This poem, I like it, but I feel the flow is awkward, maybe I shouldn’t care because the life style I live is silly/weird. However, I would love comments about it and how it felt to read or just about what you think. Thank you! =) MUCH LOVE EVERYONE <3

For the record, writing in flow is awkward and so not in flow as well. Writing even though countless times been taught to be structured and mechanically fluid I believe in the work of poetry that rule becomes flexible. Inflexibility applies to paragraphs, essays and dissertations of the kinds we are to write but in poetry it is allowed slightly as long as it makes sense for the reader to write it. Weird in writing is like asking Picasso to draw something as simple as a straight line or a perfect circle...that's never going to happen with his style of course lol. Now my review.

"There's a way in our heart that manages to speak itself in the most difficult ways yet our soul seems to find it difficult. It's a challenge itself, after all what language does our speak? It's not one easily heard even in the faintest hour of the night because that's when it will start talking. So as our insight and our voice that changes everything. Even in time we are broken in different places but we are mended by this feeling inside of us. It is not credited easily and is often confused with the divine but I assure you it isn't the divine or its design that this quality exists. It is a blind man's destination after all as he is lead there. The quality I talk of? It's called faith. That's what is missing in our life, so deeply we forget it but it is often and should be associated with unity for without it honesty, trust and even hope will not make it without it and love will be just another grain in our life that we had slipped away."

Thank you for the sharing. Remember, weird is never going to hurt us, it will change us drastically and how we accept it to making the best of our own is something we will never be able to accomplish by just being "normal".

lol I like this review allot! I wasn't concerned if the poem was weird rather if it was difficult to read lol. Thank you very much though for the feedback here. Personally, I love the weird, the abnormal, the silly, and the loving. Maybe, that is why I felt as though I had finished, but was still longing for more. Thank you very much for the review.

LOL hey hey, no problemo! Difficult to read lol? Really, it wasn't difficult, don't ever look at it that way lol. It's the art that makes it more so attractive when you write it down haha. You're very welcome on that. I love those too, no exceptions really lol. Yes it does get to you but when you finish it and you want to add more it's probably asking you to write another one that is not of this piece but possibly a brand new one. You're very welcome have a great weekend! :)

Two words: You're awesome! I like your unique style and flare, very interesting read and I enjoyed it very much! Thanks.

Your a wicked awesome and stellar individual yourself. :) Thanks for the awesome review

I really like it! Weird as you claim it to be, being unique is what makes each of us so precious. If there wasn't difference in the world then we would all be boring. I can relate to parts of it too. When you talk about how you were filled with hate before meeting this 'person/ people/ thing', but now your life seems beautiful and free. I felt that way too, although still not fully free, I am better than I used to be.

"Empathy has been your greatest tool, you never judged, instead you jump in my shoes,
You saw my life and felt what I felt,"

I love these lines, the world needs more people like this, empathetic people who try to understand others, the best they can, instead of waving them off or making them feel insignificant. Keep writing, stay weird, because it's a weirdness that needs to be celebrated :)

Awweee thank you for the beautiful review. There are so many, out there, they are ravers, and hippies, spiritualist. I have recently been spending time with many different people whom are from these groups and have found much love and inspiration. I recommend going to a some EDM festivals. I just came back from Electric Forest and there were so many good souls. Thank you again for the stellar review. NAMASTE =)
