People living here without a name
Unknown—indifferent, just a lonely soul
Trekking through the world along with the whole
A single soul in a crowded street
Billions of people never to meet
A huddled mass moving without a beat
Standing out is such a difficult feat
You’re walking with the huddled masses
Which are moving just like molasses
Move On
You scream your name up to the sky
An voice answers your desperate cry
Begone
I really don’t means to pout
All I want is to Stand Out
But I don’t know how to break free
From the huddled masses of humanity
Lonely people
Lonely lines
Forgotten faces
Forgotten times
Is what I want so much?
Freedom from the masses and such
Must I stay trapped with humanity?
Is there anyway I could break free?
Look inside to where all hides
And there is all you need
Discover yourself. Be nobody else
And then you can finally be free
Inside and Out we must Stand Out
Body and soul it’s all the same
You must shed all of your doubts
If you want to live beyond a name
You can walk in the crowd and be alone
But uniqueness will not be your own
You must stand tall and use your clout
Or else you will never Stand Out

Anonymousover 19 years agoAnother good poem. A positive theme to "be yourself" and to "stand out". Enjoyed the poem. A few syntax errors that could be attributed to typos. Please submit more. Enjoy your musings.

I just love these lines~~!!
So much depth and emotion. Your imagery here shines thru. The poem as a whole tells so much, and yet not enough.
I see the story inside the poem, and it feeds the soul. Just wonderful . More please~~!!
Christina O. Leighover 19 years agoAnother great poem. Wonderful word choice. A few errors I can see which probably were missed when you posted.
I really don’t means to pout- I don't think you wanted "means" here.
Discover yourself. Be nobody else- comma would be good between these two lines.
No harm meant.
