Laughter Flows through the room Like the clouds slithering across this glooming sky
It’s odd The calendar on my wall says its December But I feel so warm right now With all of these people With all of the memories framed up around my house
As the night drew to a close My friends bid me their farewells So they can go back to their homes All I was left with was this house
And you
Yes you
You sat there are on my couch I could see it in your eyes that something was on your mind And you ask me greatest question to ever pop up On this gloomy December night.
“ I cant seem to solve you, who are you really?” I turn confused scratching my head like a busted CD The question kept repeating in my mind “What is their to know about me?” “Well… You are funny and all but that's not what you always are?” I sat down next to her and I said
Wanna know who I am?
I am the person everyone wants me to be I smile big in front school pictures I smile bigger and bigger when I am in the center of attention. I’m emotionless when a deer is dead on the road. I cry when celebrities die And not when 14 citizens die from another bomber. I vote not knowing both sides of each issue.
I do what people tell me to do When they ask me how I’m doing I hold a big smile and say I’m pretty good
I’m an ******* who scares everyone Who tries to be close to me away Because under all of this laughter and this smile, I’m controlling. I’m afraid that you will be just like the others and leave me alone Who scrape my heart with your car So I grab and I squeeze I don't want you to be like every other person that has stumbled into my life.
But I don't say any of that instead I just say “I'm just some guy”
