I don't want to be friends

I don't want to be enemies 
I don't want to be normal
Anymore than I am,
These wants and needs
Are saplings and seeds
We grow in the soil of thought
Filled fields,
And the ones that yield 
We're the ones you showered 
With constant sweat 
And a shield of will,
I remember those years
When hard work was made steel 
Or when soft words kept me still
Till bones were soaked in courage,
Collecting the connections 
Of memory and emotion 
Is what I do most these days 
When time stops for me,
I don't wait for the clicking of steps
Or pens on a pad that mark checks
I don't wish for a room to bare ideals
To doctors in the fields 
That categorize me in categories 
With their own respected pills 
To help deal with pain and worry,
Because I have thoughts 
That mean the world to me
And I've bought kindness I have to share,
Even if you don't see it yet
I swear to god, 
it's there.
