Teenager to the World
May 21, 2010
I'm different.
I'm too short, too tall,
Too clumsy, too weird.
You just don't understand.
You don't listen, you don't know,
You presume to know everything about me!
I'm amazing.
I'm beautiful, I'm brilliant,
I'm entertaining, I'm intelligent.
You see right through me.
You know my fears, you know my joy,
You know my deepest, darkest secrets.
I'm still growing.
I don't know everything,
And I have a long way to go.
You'll have to wait.
You'll have to be like me,
And wait, to see what I'll be.
