HARDENED

Hardened

I am a blank slate

I get written on everyday

Sometimes with science or math

Sometimes someone’s wrath

I try to seek what I am

Lost in this place where I don’t belong

My life lacks meaning and direction

But I won’t stand to complain

I will take what is given to me

Will do ok, with all conditions

I have friends to look after

I can’t just sit and stare

My skills are all broken

My mind mingled with something else

I’m a tired and hungry soul

All I can do now is walk

I won’t stand in this place

Sit down to tie my lace

I would rather run barefoot

Till Mr. Fate comes for a meet

My mind can’t stand dejection

I have not yet faced rejection

I have creepy sloppy manners

Which you can never understand

I am a social outcast

Yet I won’t finish last

I’ll race you till the end

My resolutions can’t be bent
