    Dilemma

    I know I’m the biggest loser.
    I trip, I fall, and I speak
    Without being spoken to.
    I know that I don’t
    Fit in where you belong.
    So I know I couldn’t belong to you.

    No, you’re not worth an internal change.
    I won’t change what’s mine so that
    I can be yours.
    But I could be yours if you didn’t see me
    As who I am.

    Everyone says you’re mediocre at best
    But I can’t see past it, you’re beautiful
    And I could be yours if I wasn’t me
    But just as you are I would make you mine
    So why can’t you want me just as I am?

    tight poem i like it

    Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
