Handicapped by societal norms
Lost in a world I didn't opt for.
Handicapped by societal norms and expectations
Handful opportunities lurking, but unable to fathom .
As they shout loser , loser, loser - man had no choice but to hide in the dank.
Not a drunkard but had to drink the drench in order to purge the reality but it was to no avail since the veil came off the next day.
