Me

I might not be the greatest
I might not be strong
My personality might stink
But I promise I'll be better than anyone

I might not be the best
I may do badly at some tests
I might not be a golden face
But I promise for you I'll travel time and space

I might not know the outside worlds sight
I may be allergic to sunlight
I may be a shut in
But I know I'll be your best sin

I may not know how to talk to you
I might just stare at my shoes
But I promise when you get to know me
You'll never feel blue
I share my emotion through touch
Just don't be to rough

I may be hard on the outside
I may not want to let you in
I may have a thick shell
But when you've got me, for you I'll walk through hell

I'm a rough surface
I've been treated like I was circus
I was treated like trash
But just like a phoenix I'll rise through the ash

I'll start again
Don't put me through agonizing pain
If you stay loyal
I'll be with you till your fingers look like old coils
I'll be with you till you're old
I'll be with you long after I'm bold
I'll be with you till the end...
If you don't play pretend

i don't know what to say this is really good stuff . i don't know much work went into this but MAN its 100% worth it .

Very nice to see such a wonderful poem thank you

Fingers like coils -- That's a powerful image indeed. Great work!

This is truly beautiful!

WOW chill bumps!!

Great poem...I love the vulnerability and honesty of the poem....iy makes me want to shed the bs and write one about myself...

Hey, Ethan, if you write a lot of stuff like this, you should seriously consider teaming up with a producer and taking up rapping, if hip hop is your thing.

Or you could go the solo route and find some fee beats online.

I would love to try it but I don't know where I should start looking :|

I like the poem, it is full of feelings and you are a very talented person

Good post !

Good poetry

It seems like a very sacrificed love and a little suffering ... but I think we have all felt that way ... We will always put ourselves in the position of "give without asking anything in return" ... GOOD POEM. .. GREETINGS FROM VENEZUELA.
