I am me

I am me

A Poem by Emily

I'm just me.

 

The girl with the constant smile

and the overloud laugh.

 

The girl who stays in the backround

but secretly wishes to be noticed.

 

The girl who never cries

but laughs it off instead.

 

The one you never really think about

or look at too closely.

 

Maybe thats why you never see the me that I am inside.

 

The one who hides behind the smile.

 

The one with the pain in her eyes.

 

The one who cries a lot.

 

The girl that I really am,

not the one I let you see.

 

But you will never realize,

she is just the one I pretend to be.

 

In other words

The girl you think you know,

shes not me.

 

But shes the only one you'll ever see.

Poem tells a common story. But life is fair. With time and new roads later in life we can be what we want. It becomes your world one day. I like the poem. Description and story was very strong. A very good ending.

This is a really deep piece. You can really feel the emotion, and that they'll never know who you really are. I love these lines: "In other words
The girl you think you know,
she's not me.
But she's the only one you'll ever see." Just don't forget your apostrophes. Other that that, well done!
