what makes me different?

i am average nothing special nothing new

i cant sing 

i cant dance 

im not a poet

some might say im talentless

im sick of always getting second place

never in the spotlight 

always in the shawdow

when will my time come to shine

i am average nothing more nothing less

no better than the rest 

but what makes me better ?

what makes me different?

The poem isn't sophisticated or "pretty" as mentioned, but its alot to ponder about. What makes us different? We spend a long journey trying to find out who we are. Sometimes, we just have to go with the flow.

What makes us different is the questions we ask, and the journey to the answer. Nice write. Keep asking questions. You will find magnificent answers.

Looks to me like you are a poet. I like this a lot. It's tough to find one's self and meaning sometimes. Good work

Sometimes, this world is so big you kind of lose sight of what matters. This poem may not have very pretty words in it at all, but it is a nice poem. Lets face it- We're all understated and this poem really shows that. I like it :)

this brings up a pretty good point. that is really the truth for most people tho but as long as you are not arrogant nor depressed then you can have a big perspective.

What a great poem that describes the majority of what everyone thinks of themselves. Dont't worry, you are unique in your own way.
