Outer/Inner me

March 15, 2012
By Anonymous

Tall, Lanky, Awkward
Acne-Scarred and Skinny.
My laughter crackles from my mouth,
Like a kettle popcorn exploding.
Tennis playing, drum carrying
Moving with a purpose
To a destination only I can see.

Exhausted from my expenditures
Of Time and Energy.
Laughing I may be, but wary,
Because I always need to belong.
Arrogant to a point
I always know beat.
Knowledge and books and the unknown
Intrigue and delight me,
Always.
