I'm Human, Too
Folder:
From the heart All I hear
All day long,
Is the same old thing,
Like some old song.
"Cute hair","Nice shirt",
"I like your face",
"I like you skirt."
But I'm done.
Stop the flattery.
Stop the crap.
It's so cliche,
And you KNOW that!
You act like I
Am something on display,
Like I am perfect.
It's all false what you say.
You may think
My life is bliss.
Well, oh, contrare.
Listen to this:
I wake up late,
My hair a mess.
Throw on makeup,
No time to dress.
Run out the door,
And get in the car.
No one speaks,
And it hurts my heart.
I walk through the halls,
My face aglow.
But underneath...
I feel so low.
You people act
Like i have it all.
YOU ARE SO WRONG.
At any moment i could fall.
Fall under the spell,
Wish I could die,
Put my eyes to the ground
And just want to cry.
I am fragile, TOO.
I am not superman.
My face is zitty
and my skin's not tan.
I always think
I'm ugly and gross.
Like a little toad,
A frog at most.
But the charade I play,
Is a careful one.
I only want normalcy,
Not fame and fortune.
So, please,
Give up the act.
Put up the curtains,
And face the fact:
I'm human.
I'm not perfect.
I'm not amazing.
But I'm worth it.
To God, to my family,
I am worth it.
But, please, please, remember...
I'm human, too.
well
"and my skin's no(t) tan."? i realy like this one it kindof trails off subject twards the end but i see why. good job.

thanks for the typo!
I changed it, so thank you! :) also, it did sort of change subjects, but that was on purpose. it's supposed to sort of say "sure, you may think i'm perfect, or some may hate on me, but i know i'm not perfect, but i AM worth it." if that even makes any sense:) i sortof wrote it in a mad dash to capture my thoughts!
heh
no i get it, but hmm...ok it starts of with a sloap like a skater going down a hill but then it gets to rough then you hop onto the sidewalk. i think thats what i was trying to say. still a good write
