You were born this way
An exceptional intellectual creatively powering the universe with your natural ability
You define who you are with your essential grace
You are the fairytale in a world where the real just isn’t enough because the imagination has been replaced
Erased and scribbled over with laws that try to limit who you really are
You’re a cosmic star in the matter of space
Shining bright like the diamond with no shape
You can’t be defined
Your true genius is undermined because of the eclectic projections are taken into consideration via their own perceptions
They could never understand the way you cultivate the hearts of those who deserve so much better
You are who you are
A prodigy of indifference towards hate because your love is the flair of your genius

Evening, Miss Bae!
I thought it only right to drop by with a hello of my own. I love poetry, to start. And this poem I like quite a lot. You’re very good with words. This poem, the way one sentence flows to the next, it’s something I can read and reread. For that, I thank you. As a second to what I have to say, I’d like to point out my favorite part:
“You’re a cosmic star in the matter of space
Shining bright like the diamond with no shape
You can’t be defined”
You Can’t Be Define – now THAT is a powerful statement. Beyond this world, impossibly large but lacking a shape, something that cannot be molded into anything other than what it wants to be. This alone, I think, is a wonder all its own. The idea that we cannot be defined by another, I like that. I like it a lot, I must say.
Great job on this and keep up the good work!
Wow I don’t even know what to say besides thank you for reading and taking the time out to write such a heartfelt comment.
I am marveling in gratitude not just because you read my poem but you understood and then dug deeper.
This is how artist function we pull things from each other to grow and strengthen our gifts. We cannot be defined. We don’t fit unless we want to and even then internally we may refuse to.
Thanks. Please come by and leave a comment anytime.
It’ll be my pleasure, Miss Bae
Love your poem! 🙂
