Retreat Into Normal

My mind typically busy with imagination
Suddenly occupied by mundane speculation
Even daydreams have stepped back into the shadows

Staring out the window watching life pass by
I find no urge to go out and participate
Inside my numb cocoon is comfort

I have long lived among stares at my quirks
Bombarded with verbal missiles of you are too much a dreamer
Lay down your dreams and just live your life

Tired from battling those who have no vision
I have retreated into normal
The place where identical equates acceptance

Not sure how long my thoughts will live in this foreign land
I pray only long enough to gather strength
To return to where impossibility is the catalyst to my dreams
