I guess I'm just dull and boring
My feelings are so transparent
I'm really not worth any adoring
Perhaps my mind is even abhorrent

It's not likely you'd wanna stick around
It's not likely I'll make you laugh like the class clown
But who are you to even judge?
You're not even around me that much

Little did you know I'm the funniest of my friends
Little did you know I'm quick witted
Little did you know I'm the one that always lends
A helping hand to those when they need it

I love too hard and it's over bearing
I care too much and it's creepy
But it's just my heart I am sharing
I can't help that my feelings live deeply

Maybe one day someone will appreciate
How I give my all to them
Maybe one day someone will alleviate
This worry that I am not a gem
"Don't be a hard rock when you really are a gem."- Lauryn Hill
