"The Real Me"

Yes,

I'm a loner

and yes,

I'm a freak

but these two things

don't matter to me.

I am labeled as an outcast,

but that's not who I am.

I define myself

so no one else can.

I think I am

thoughtful,unique, and bright

but it doesn't really matter

what's on the inside.

It's only outward apperances

that matter these days.

Not the thoughts behind the skin

and where people's personalities lay.

I rather be labeled for who I am,

than who I'm not.

So give me a chance

and take a shot.

Get to know me,

and then you'll finally see

who the real me truly is.
