Unfortunate Fly

I wish you would see

how our brains aren't the same

and how yours isn't geared like mine

what makes me grin

and giggle like a kid

isn't what makes you warm inside

I wish you'd notice

how I'm so blue deep down

and how I don't understand why

although you're balanced

and free as a bird

I feel much more like a fly

I don't expect you'll

suddenly understand

or you'll have an epiphany

I can't help how I work

or what my mind churns

but I deserve to be happy

-l.r.

This is so raw and emotional. We are all worthy of happiness and I love how you ended this! Really nice piece! Please check out my piece "When Eating Becomes an Obsession"!!!!

Thank you and I will!

I totally can relate to this piece. People always look at me as being strange or eccentric. But in the end I'm just me...

[Katie Alexander]

I can really hear your voice in this.
