Poems About Me

I watch the pouring rain through the window
The beauty and the sound captures me
I stand still to see the sun slowly fading away
If I could paint a picture, I would
I think of things no one else does
I share as much as I can but it's still not enough
Because you can't see the world through my eyes
I wish I could walk on water
I wish sometimes I could just disappear
I want magical powers beyond anyone's belief
But most of all I want you to understand me
I'm complicated and complex
I don't always fit in
But I definitely stand above the crowd
I'm not stupid or weird or anything else like that
I'm just different, I'm me
But I know you can't see my life through my eyes
I wish I could allow you into my mind
I wish I could tell you every thing I've thought
So you would know who I really am
But I am not capable of such things
My mind is never known through my eyes
My soul is a rainbow of fantasies
And my thoughts are random at best
I may seem to others as if I'm crazy
But you could never really know
I've always been scared of rejection
I've always wondered what you truly think of me
But my trust in those that care remain
If you love me, great
If you hate me, that's fine too
I wasn't made to please you
I have some sort of purpose
Whatever that may be, I haven't figured out yet
But I am someone you could never truly figure out anyway
Only I know the secrets of my being
Only I understand my real knowledge
And only I will see this world out...
Through my eyes

Author's Notes/Comments: 

This is about how I view things and how I feel some people view me. Sometimes I feel like people don't fully understand me, but to be honest you can never fully understand anyone. There's always a story and there's always a reason behind every living soul. They may not remember it all or may not want to share it but there's a reason for everything.
