I don't write for anyone but myself. Quite honestly, I'm the only one who would read it. Simple rhyme schemes mostly. Free verse when a lot is on my mind. Because you can write something; Just write down how you feel, And then go back and look at all the metaphors and symbols that you didn't notice. Until now. Now, looking back on those feelings you threw upon the paper... They make a little more sense.

I Don't Write For Anyone But Myself
I'm tired of being a nobody, Of siting quietly in crowded spaces Of going unnoticed A lost ship in a sea of faces. Making friends isn't hard I actually do it quite well But it's never too long Before those new ships, set sail. It's not that I am unloved. I'm valued it's true. But being thought of first That's only by few. Maybe it's pride that gets in my way But no matter what I do No matter what I say... Or if I do speak up,I go unheard The face of a popular girl With the soul of a nerd. No marvel t shirts Or Keds on my feet Only opinions that don't matter. Words I don't speak.
