The way I am

by undying blusher   Jul 27, 2005


You’ll never know
I cannot tell you the real reason
I simply cannot speak the words
You’re sitting there with a frown on your face
An actual frown
Unusual for your face
I don’t enjoy it either
I cannot comfort you for what I try to say…I end up silent
The words will never leave my mouth
You’ll continue frowning
I’ll continue in my silence
Nothing has truly changed
I am still myself
Shy, quiet, & oh so naïve
I should have started over
I had a chance
No one knew my past
No one knew the way I was, the way I am
I should have taken the chance to become
Someone else…not pretending to be another…
But being new, different, better
A better me
I want better
I want to be better
I am going to change
Change for myself
Only…where oh where to start?

    Once again, much better than anything, ANYTHING, I could write. This sorta relates to me (like most of your poems do?), and brings back memories.. Very unqiue (SP) flow, and excellent word choice. I would try to offer some constructive critisim but I'm not sure what you can improve on...
