Why is it that,
you're all too
criticizing
of my ideas,
so what if they
are stupid
I like them,
and I'll do what
I want to do,
and stop
criticizing me
for that too.

And if my dreams
are out of line,
with what you'll think
I'll grow up to be,
just find support,
and humor it,
because I feel
that it's all I
have left for me.

I like to be unrealistic
and to express
myself in ways
you might not be
used to and I
might not be
emotionally
stable,
but I can hide
it well and people
like me because
I always have
a smile on
my face,
unless they're
making it up
to make me
feel better.

I like that feeling -
you know, that one
when the words just
flow and you don't
have to think about
it too often,
and the rhyming
scheme is
non existent;
it can't bother me.

Also, a notice
to all who
associate with me.
Don't label me.
I hate it when
people ask
me what I
identify as.
I
am
me.
I
am
not
emo.
I
am
not
a
fag.
I
am
not
that
weird
kid.
(Although I may
have my
tenancies.)

Don't ask me
what I think
of something
because I don't
like lying.

And keep telling
yourself that I
like you,
Lying is my
second nature
and I'm damn
good at it.
