Through one of the most undesirable times that left me panting, <br />Oddly you were the one that seemed so enchanting. <br />A smile here and a laugh there, <br />Somehow I can tell that you have a much bigger burden to bear. <br />You are charming and sweet. <br />Still, my eyes are afraid to meet, <br />Who was afraid to be sincere, <br />About a rumor that I did hear. <br />Even then I believed it not to be true. <br />After I heard, I thought I would get to know you. <br />But I guess your walls are built and you act fine. <br />You don't even know how tall and how thick are mine. <br />I had it coming, I guess. <br />Even now when we see each other my mind becomes a mess. <br />You must not know what it is like on the exterior of society. <br />You seem basic and I am a wide variety. <br />I cannot assume because I do not know, <br />Through what you have had to go. <br />Still, I don't see why, <br />I might have caught your eye. <br />To standards I am undesirable, <br />So now I am possessed by a feeling that is indescribable. <br />All I know is a name and a face.<br /><br />Hannah Bryson Price<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/confusion-238/
