Is it normal that i write so much?

I like to write a lot and it's really my only hobby apart from reading, but people at college laugh at me and say I'm a sad loser and to get back to the real world. I have a condition called cerebal palsy that effects my arms and legs so I can't do much sports at all and there aren't many things a person like me can do so it's all I have really. Here's a poem I wrote, it's about the people who pick on me and why I don't want to be like them.

I say nothing, they deny everything
I feel alone, despite the way I’m shown
I say nothing, it’s not hard to see
I try to speak loudly but what will they make of me?

I say nothing, but that’s what I do
I feel like a piece of gum on their shoe
Every time I speak, they think I’m too Meek, but what can I do?
I am after all, the gum on their shoe

I say nothing, but when I try to talk
They’ll only make fun of the way I walk
I cry and I cry but when I even try it will only get worse, it’s like dirty rotten curse

I might say everything, but what I think will only drive them to the brink
Those girls, those cheap and dirty girls have ruined me, I know they have despite what they say, those make up skirts and low cut shirts.

I say nothing, do you want to know why?
It’s cause I think and feel I’ll die
I don’t really want to be shy
But reading and writing it’s all I have
I don’t really want to be a chav

But the all are and I know they won't
change!

I don't have anything against girls who wear low cut shirts or lots of make up, it's just thats what the girls who hate me look like.

    Don't let those people bother you. You like writing? Many people like writing. I'm a college student who loves writing too! It doesn't make you a sad loser. Pay no attention to them, they're just your typical college students of today. They don't know anything but, partying, sex, drinking, and drugs. Psh...typical. And those girls are nothing but skanks. Don't let them bring you down. You have just as much to offer as anyone else. And I think you wrote a wonderful poem.

      Thank you so much! I try not to listen, but they get right up in my face you know? One of them slapped me once and everyone was on her side and they called me a freak. I'm glad there's someone else like me ou ther! I'm really glad you liked the poem! :D

        She slapped you?!?! WOW! What a little snot! You can't take that from someone. If it's getting that bad, where they're actually getting physical with you, you should tell somebody. That's not right. Those girls must be straight up, TRASH! You don't deserve to be treated like that. Don't take crap from anybody!

        And you should continue writing if that's what you love. Maybe you should go into a major in college that focuses mainly on writing. You probably would do very well.

        Good luck everlily! Keep your chin up!

  • You are a great writer and don't let them get you down, they are jealous and bitter.

    Join DeviantART if you haven't already, I'm on there too and it's a great place for art and literature and anyone can post their works for free! :D

    Don't listen to them and stay strong.

    Yeah, your poem was great! :) People, sadly, will probably always tease and make fun of people and conditions they don't understand. Those girls are ignorant and immature. The best thing to do is ignore them and keep doing what you love to do.

    Personally, I've always loved writing, mostly fictional stories. It's a great way to get your feelings out. I love your poem, it has so much depth. You should definitely keep writing - and don't let those bitches get to you. <3

    I'm a college student and a writer. If writing is what you love then do it. As for them, they're no better than the gum on YOUR shoe.

    I like writing. You shouldn't let anybody insult you like that, especially when you are not good in health. People who write are considered to be enlightened, especially at your age. BE PROUD OF THAT. You should also publish your work.

    First of all you're really talented and don't let anyone tell you otherwise. That was a great poem and I could really feel the sadness and pain these people caused, but it's great you turned all these negative emotions into a piece of art.

    That been said, I hope you don't let your condition discourage you and stop you from enjoying you life. Even if you still don't enjoy or are capable to do all the stuff people around you do, try to enjoy your life to the fullest by doing what you truly want.

    And remember, just because you met some real jerks in you life, don't lose hope in humanity. There are lots of people out there who would love to be your friend (myself included). Don't stop looking!!
