My Superiority-Complex - short by *FoggyPebble:iconFoggyPebble:



Everyone around me is wandering through a broad status,
And I've stuck most of them under my own;
I know I'm picky about who goes where and why,
But this way I think's the only one I've known.

When you break the loop to poke your head in and laugh,
You don't know you're in a narrow maze; that's why I laugh too.
You're back to seeking cheese that gets you through each day,
And when I cry it has not a thing to do with you.

Dad's been telling me we're the same since I was born;
If they believe this lie, I know more then them.
The reason I built this isn't clear, as I'm torn,
But anything not to aid the problem.

Born Bipolar, I'm still not above all thought yet,
'Won't give up to Depression, father's image, your drugs.
Being inspired means being Manic, not human;
It's okay, my conscience tells me: we're far higher than slugs.

This piece is very expressive in feelings of isolation, I believe. Not exactly an uncomfortable loneliness but the notion that everyone around is always oblivious, assuming to others; and that it is a repetitive, sickening progress which grows old and starts to unknowingly wither away at it's victim. It continues until they feel prematurely decrepit by an overwhelmingly expansive humble, bitter wisdom. And, of course, it deals with certain things along the terms of Bipolar disorder and possibly manic depression, as hinted.

I apologize if I did not understand which message you were trying to convey in this poetic writing. I am merely perceiving it through my perspective, and I find it very thought-inspiring, as good food for the brain, wholly complimenting. One would have to read it numerous times to fully understand it, but this is not a bad thing at all. It is powerful, emboldened, capturing. The reader could find a standing out mental suggestion the first time reading it, and even more the next.
