Misunderstood

I am quiet.

I am shy.

I don’t really like to try,

Even though I should.

 

I’ve messed up.

I’ve told lies.

But can’t you see it in my eyes?

I am good.

 

I am smart

I am sly

You wouldn’t know unless you tried

To know me.

 

I am sad

I will cry

And you will hear me apologize

It’s just me.

 

I never want to see anyone hurt.

I’d never wish anyone dead.

I never want to remake the mistakes

That plague my heart and head

 

I’m not a bad person

I’m just misunderstood.

My only intention in this life

Is to do something good

 

I just don’t see why life

Has to be so unfair

Accusing those who don’t have an ounce of malice

While dangers roam everywhere
