Shunned


Shunned
JD Rhode

I am shunned when I get upset at conformity, but
I am shunned when I agree to everything
I am shunned when I say nothing, but
I am shunned when I state my opinion-
even if it is one that you agreed with in private
I am shunned when I want my way, but
I am shunned when I am a doormat
I am shunned when I want to love you too much, but
I am shunned when I don’t want you around
Where is the middle?
When will I not be shunned for everything I do?
When will I not be shunned for being funny
For being smart
For being determined
For having needs?
When will I not be shunned for being myself?
