Kleine Texte

A broken seashell

I want to be somebody else.

I don't want to not be me, just want you to see, who I could be.

An artist.
A farmer.
Or simply just a charmer.

Somebody great, somebody nice,
Somebody who isn't like me, like ice.
Never melting and always cold,
Always with a shield to hold.

Never happy and never here,
Always listening but never heard.

Somebody who earns the glory,
Somebody you feel safe with,
Not somebody that makes you worry.
I'm sorry.

I can't be that and I can't be this,
Maybe you shouldn't rely on me,
Let's be honest - We're not meant to be,
And everything is just in your fucked up fantasy.

Don't be stupid,
Now open your eyes!
Or you'll be disappointed in me,
And I'll make you cry,
Because everything I told you was simply a lie.

You're beautiful like the ocean, like nature itself -
I'm nothing but a broken seashell.

Maybe I don't really want you to see who I could be,
Maybe I just hate myself,
For what I might actually be.
So before hearts break,
I will flee.

Das ist mein allererstes englisches Gedicht überhaupt und ich habe jetzt kurz meinen kleinen stolzen Moment :3
Es ist wahrscheinlich trotzdem nicht alles zu 100% grammatikalisch korrekt
