Isn't it cute?
How you can go
from so happy!!
to so down?

Isn't it sad?
How you can ever so calmly
look your peers in the eyes,
and say how alone
and empty you are?

Isn't it funny?
How you can go from
have so many people who love
and adore you!
to one person to call a friend?

Isn't it embarrassing?
How you are afraid to speak.
How you are so scared
that your words will be judged
and mocked?
because that's what happens
all the freaking time?

Isn't it lonely?
How you hope and pray
that someone will smile
in your way?
Or how you just stare
out the window
imagining a new life for you?

Isn't it dumb?
How you cannot sleep calmly
without sitting up
and screaming, waking everyone
in your house
because of a reoccurring nightmare?

No.
It's not cute
or sad
or funny
or embarrassing
or lonely
or dumb.

You are you.
