I am running all the time <br />but I'm running down hill; <br /> <br />I am thinking all the time <br />but clear thinking is foggy to me most times. <br /> <br />I do things sometimes and can't remember what. <br /> <br />I do things sometimes and can't remember why. <br /> <br />I have days I just want not to see no one; <br />just want to hide. <br /> <br />I think certain days <br />others are looking at me. <br /> <br />I think certain days <br />others are better than me. <br /> <br />I don't want to go into certain things in detail- <br />the detail will hurt, <br />need to keep it general and light, <br />not get too heavy in my mind. <br /> <br />Don't want to be like others because I can't. <br /> <br />Don't want to adjust <br />because it will <br />make me crazy. <br /> <br />I prefer people think I am dull and lazy <br />rather than I've tried and failed. <br /> <br />Don't want any one to get to know me too well; <br />I might be judged. <br /> <br />I have a secret side of me no one knows <br />that is superior over others. <br /> <br />I run away from feeling down <br />and tried being happy- <br />didn't like it; <br />it didn't work out too well. <br /> <br />What is wrong with me? <br /> <br />I was born in the wrong century <br />I should be a pirate <br />and not polite <br />or effete. <br /> <br />And another thing <br />I really like being around people <br />but I don't really like them to talk to me.<br /><br />Lonnie Hicks<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/who-am-i-cory-s-story/
