Reserved, walls up
He stands all alone
No emotions, he speaks
In all monotone.
Watching the world
Spin round and round
Safe in his fortress
Making no sound.
Most don't notice
The thoughtful stares
They glance and see nothing
But they're unaware
Of a boy so brilliant
Hiding inside
That creative, amazing,
wondrous mind.
But no one sees
Fore they don't look.
They judge the cover
of his book.
But I want to hear
What he has to say.
I refuse to let him just walk away.
--------I want to hear his story.--------
Like a difficult equation,
He stands alone.
I attempt to carve
through all the stones
He's piled high around himself.
They can't get in
But he can't get out.
Like a riddle
I'll never be able to solve,
He never does what I expect.
The ropes I repeatedly keep trying to toss,
He always rejects.
Maybe that's why I can't
get him out of my head.
Maybe I want his mystery instead
Of answers. Maybe I don't really need
To know everything.
I don't want to break down
all of his walls,
I just wish I could be on his side.
I wish he didn't have to feel
Like he had no choice but to hide.
He's brave, he's smart
and I'm in awe of his smile
Because its one I almost
Never see.
I wish he'd stop seeing me as
just some girl
And finally really see me.
Lets be friends,
Emotionless boy.
I know you have secrets to hide.
You don't have to tell me
Just let me be there
And trust me enough
Not to lie.
You're not sad, you feel nothing.
Bullshit, I want to say.
But I'll nod and save it for another day.
Don't feel like you have to keep closing the doors.
You may not be my friend
But I'll always be yours.
Maybe he's not the weird one. Maybe you are. And maybe being the truly interesting person he is, is better than being the average clone that most people strive to be.
My goal right now is to earn his friendship and his trust.
I have no idea how I'm going to do that but I will, even if its the last thing I ever do. Wish me luck.
A/n: the last part I was just talking about the guy. Most ppl think he's just some weirdo kid but I think he's really awesome. He's the kind of person I want to learn everything about. Don't blind yourselves to the amazing ppl out there just because they aren't who you usually associate with. Everyone is amazing in their own way.
I know the flow sucks but honestly, I don't feel like editing it right now. I'll do it later(8 months later...)
~Enjoy~
