Description “Who are you?”
“Who am I?”
“Yes, who are you?”
“I am who I am, nothing more, nothing less.”
“I don’t understand.”
“Well I am me, what more do you want to know?”
“Well I want to know the truth,
not the bull shit that you tell people is the truth.”
“Ahh, you want to know what’s behind the mask”
“Bingo, that’s exactly what I want to know.”
“Well I can’t tell you,
That would be like leaving the house naked.
Everyone would think that I’m crazy.”
“You’re making this complicated.”
“No you just asked a complicated question,
Expecting a simple answer.”
“Well answer in a complicated way.”
“A complicated way…
I’m the girl who has one best friend,
A friend that is closer than family.
I’m the girl who spray paints her hub caps,
Just because she can.
I’m the girl who travels across town,
To look for a fish tank that in unable to be found.”
“So that’s your complicated answer?”
“Yes, and no all at the same time.”
“Well there has to be more, something you’re not telling me.”
“You want more?”
“Yes, more, give me more than I can handle.”
“I am scared of waking up one morning,
Only to find out that I am alone in this world”
I am scared of being lied to,
By the person that I love the most.
I am scared of more then I could ever admit to.”
“More?”
“Yes, there is always more,
More the you could ever know.”
“Well tell me more then.”
“Like my desires, hopes, wishes, dreams, wants,
Everything all at once, but nothing at all.
Like a porcelain doll, pretty in the box,
But you don’t want to take her out.
I can only tell so much, with out spoiling
The way you view me.”
“Well tell me all that you can.”
“All that I can is less than you think,
And more than I will ever know.”
“Tell all that you can.”
“I think that I already have,
Without really intending to.
Anything else would be made up,
Just to fill the empty air.
To make it seem like I am more
Then I ever can be,
Or ever will be.
To make me someone that I’m not.
Someone fake,
Someone who lives someone else’s life.
A person that I could never be.
Like a porcelain doll, always smiling,
Never feeling anything.
Empty.”

"Like a porcelain doll, pretty in the box"

I really liked those lines. You should write more. My poems have to rhyme (it's just who I am), but yours really have expression.

Good job! ^_^ I hope everything is alright in the pretty little head of yours. I'll be here if you need me.

*scratches her head...wonders why this sounds so familiar...recalls something quite similar being published in a certain "book" with an owl on the front...wonders if this is the same poem...likes the poem muchly*

I love it! Sounds just like you...wait, perhaps that's why she called it a poem about herself...See! I told you, but you wouldn't listen to me...Of course I listen to you, you're me!...Yeah, but sometimes you don't even listen to yourself. That's silly. You're silly. That's what I said, stop mocking me! I'm mocking myself, don't throw yourself in a river....Anyway, your poem is clever.
