Me

Sometimes I'm a philosopher

With my head in a book

And always thinking;

Who craves intelligent conversation

Someone to give me a perspective that's different from what I see

 

Other times the things I say

Would make you think I'm high

Or drunk because

I'm so random and I speak

Absolute nonsense

It's my favorite side of me

Because it opens new views

But mainly because I laugh the most

I hate it when

I feel disconnected

Indifferent, apathetic towards

Something, anything but it seems

To be happening more often

Somewhere inbetween all of that

I'm funny and sarcastic

Sensitive and a bit adventurous

A hopeless romantic

Though I try to hide it

A depressed little girl

With self-esteem problems

And daddy issues

I am shy

I am sweet

I am angry and lost

There are so many things

But I am me,

And I have no idea

Why I am telling you this.

Fun write. I like your style and your desire to see "a perspective that's different from what I see"... The Universe is yours ;-)

Thank you :)

I love this. It's my inner monologue. But the last two lines are really what brings it home: "And I have no idea/Why I am telling you this." Perfect and honest.
