I am the crazy old cat lady that lives all alone
I am the loner at school who no one really knows
I am the bookworm the weirdo the freak
I am the creep looking out my window
trying to catch a glimpse of passersby on the street
I am the teacher's pet the quiet one, the shy one
I am the outsider, with a magnifying glass...
Observing, yearning, learning...
Through the looking glass
I am the geek, the nerd, the loser
Trying to fit in but utterly losing
I am the enigma (ha), the wallflower, the maiden
Looking for that someone, who understands--Could it be?
You?--No
That's wishful thinking on my behalf
To believe you are my better half
To believe I have a better half!
For I am the introverted extrovert
No sticks and stones but
Words
Trying to learn--to comprehend
The lesson of life and
Utterly failing, left behind
I know what they say:
"Out of sight
Out of mind"
But I am the pariah, the misfit,
The Untouchable--who sees all
And what most never see, yet
I am human above all
Longing to Be
