So this one was a piece that reminded me just a little bit of someone I know. :D I want to make a shoutout to The Stupendous Jimbo, brother of surprises, because it's his birthday today! Yay! Happy birthday! Don't kill me for this! XD
And to you, dear reader, I would like to tip my hat of welcomes. Your honest opinions are always free to be expressed, whether you liked this poem or not. Honesty is bliss, and fully appreciated. Enjoy~

Misunderstandings
Look at me and tell me what you see
Fighting alongside companions and foes alike
Blindly standing like a plastic figure
With soft skin, long hair, blue eyes, finesse
But do you know where I came from?
Do you know what I left behind?
Hate to break this to you, but you don't know me
Just what exactly do you want to put me through?
High school was not a part of my memory
Subspace, tournaments, must I crusade repetition campaigns?
Or desires replacing me with self embodiments created
I dare you to say this; dare me to speak pointless truth
Unless you want to question my sexuality?
I may fight for you, but there are limits, you see.
Just an ordinary day sitting at a table of food
Would you believe me if I say it's paradise?
Now look at where there is stone engraved
Look at the tears flowing down her face
The empty hole in that child's stomach
Or that man's battered strength unable to stand
Must be sad for you, but life isn't fair
A new structure was made for crystal palace walls
So why can't there ever be serenity?
Inner battles must be won or lost to insanity
Blood battles are fought by soldiers for a corporal greed cause
Others build, only destroy what's recently been created
It's merely a matter of human nature to sin
Look at perfection around you, but destruction is there
Today wasn't only a day when I discovered this
Bent down to sit thinking of a nice summer's field
Thoughts of a future and love that principles abide by
Living life with my wife when all this is over
The wind blew softly through locks of my blue hair
Sunlight sparkle bright on a head's tiara reflections
Though, I feel I must remind you; I'm a heterosexual male
Change, no matter, forgiven always shall be
Albeit strong memory be kept ready for what's next
Keep note to remember weak isn't me
I've lived through more than thought possibilities
Sure, chain me to a male partner, though just know this
Make sure to keep good reason, not only pure mindless
Don't force me to be what I'm not, because I've been through it all
So hello
We meet again, pencil
