So many things to look at – pretty Girls with short hair, long hair, Brunettes and blondes Short and tall – they have secrets They’ve got them all
The nice ones, too stuck on plans To ever be free, college and marriage Is all the dreams the see The tall ones, those with Beautiful smiles and smoking bodies Their lights blotted out by insecurities
But who of them will look through me And who can see the person That I’d truly wish to be
I stand here, waiting for something In between it all; someone who Sees me for that which I am A girl that doesn’t run from the skeletons In my Titanic-sizes closet
And doesn’t die from boredom When I sit still, when times get calm But I’ve been here before And I loved my time here, yet How could I even sit still With the cries I hear at night
I'm clueless as to how to fall in love I think it should have happened At this point, or maybe even long before My mouth and lips are on someone’s thighs The cheap guitar I own, neglected in the corner
You and me, for now, is all there is It won’t last long Until I won’t see you Just like you never Truly saw me.
A poem about my ability to misjudge others instead of giving them a chance.
