#misjudgment
why do you fear, when i'm near? i do not understand your fear i'm not cruel, i'm not mean. i only seek a lover to embrace, to embrace them right beneath the evening sun. i'm too scared to hold too tight. to choke them with too much love. i love too much, too much for anyone to bear. it makes me miserable, sad and alone. but i promise you i'm not mean, i'm not bad. i'm only a man who needs love beneath evening sun

misjudgement
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.

I misjudge you; you misjudge me
Bashed for my age and my single-dom I shrugged in carelessness and slapped a smile on my face Questioned for my actions I hugged them and told them to partake in conversation that did not happen virtually but physically Shunned for my appearance I loosened my untamed hair and fixed my piercings blew them a kiss Miss-judged for my behavior I lifted my drink and cheered them for their ignorance Ignored for my elation I patted them on the back hoping they'd only feel an iota of what I feel, everyday Punished for my recklessness I begged them to see the world through my eyes and how colorful it would be Insulted for my honesty I opened their eyes to their insecurities that to me are truly beautiful

BASHED

For granted
My head isn't bare So trouble i'm hiding You assume Under my scarf Within my hair Yeah, of course that's true Because feelings i don't have And to care i never do WOW what some people Sophisticated much in wardrobe and appealing, But how about thoughts and some feelings?
