Who am i

by ashley buzzard   Oct 31, 2004


You think you know me
you think you know me
by the clothes i wear
or the way i act??
you don't know me
the real me has dug a hole
a hole so deep
no one can dig me out of.
i pretend to be myself
being afraid
of being me
not wanting people to
see my true colors
afraid of what they might say
hiding from the truth
hiding from whats really important
only showing hate
showing hate
afraid to show love
for every time love is shown all i get is hate
i don't take the time
to get to know you
afraid of feeling hurt
i may be rude
i feel thats all there
is for me to share
thats all Ive ever gotten so why should i be nice
why not just give to them
what they've always
given me
i can only show what Ive
been shown
so why do i act the way i do
why do i dress weird and were
weird jewelry
its because of you
you shown me thats
all there is
you shown me thats
whats right
i only learn from those around me
you make me who i am
