Ascetic Contemplation

Abandonment... Insecurity

Self-doubt

Has paved roads

Created an army

Constructed a masterpiece.

Instead of trapping

Caging

My conscience 

It's built and mustered forth courage

spawned wisdom

forged strengh

It has created the ultimate unique being

While I've been ignored

Discarded

Forgotten

I've grown immune

To the anger

To the displeasure of others

As they mean nothing to me

I can stand on top

Alone with the few I'm fond of

I can stand with my dreams

And I can believe there is nothing wrong with the world

I have the power that no one else has

The power to deny myself the "responsibility" of reviewing

The power to deny the need that everyone has of fitting in

The power to tell myself, "I don't need to be like them"

This is why I believe i'm superior

To those who obsess themselves with appearances

Because I am unique

In skills and in mindset
