Read Me

Everyone wants to get inside my head

Now that’s a puzzle they won’t figure out before bed

Everyone wants me to tell how I feel

As if that’s really going to heal

What no one gets is I’m no good at word of mouth

But put a pen in my hand and I really can spout

 

Some people think they know me down to my brainstem

But they are sorely mistaken

And others complain that they can’t read me

Hand me a pen

And I’ll spare you expense

 

In my writing you can see my struggle

Or what has me so befuddled

Look close enough and you’ll see who I love

And who I just want to shove

In my words you’ll find all of my dreams

And all the times my heart was blown to smithereens

So when you want to know my hurts

Don’t look to my mouth but my words

 

Just look inside my writing and you’ll find me!

Perfect. Something I definitely feel. I find it hard to portray emotion through word of mouth, but give me something to right with and I can tell you what's up in no time!
Very well written.
