Where My Heart Lies

Not used to stares Not used to whispers Not used to compliments It all makes me shiver No matter how cool or popular I wish to be, I am not used to it, and will never be. I am not used to being popular. I am not used to be pretty, I am not used to being well or cool dressed; I am not used to being smart, or witty, or intelligent. I am used to being miserable I am used to being someone who wish to be those things I am used to being the wallflower in the corner, or the loser and the dork classmate trying to be cool. I am used to be the one who is trying to be funny or who is funny and crazy. I am used to be the stupid one in the class. I am not used to this world, or this reality of life. But I am used to the life I have created, imagined, and dreamed in my head. There is where my heart lies.
