behind the curtian


I hate this act- that i feel i must put on.

A silent bookworm, who sits in the corner, just wanting to be left alone.

But i want to get out,

i want to laugh without fear of judment,

i want to give my opinion without fear of an argument.

I want people around me to see

past the bookworm steiotype hole,

that i have dug for myself

and who i am behind the curtian.

Behind the curtian, i am

a sports player who's been hitting triples since age seven.

a christian, who's not ready to lay down because someone disagree's.

a sister, who's willing to be suspended if i hear one bad thing about my family.

a daughter, who loves both parents to much, she can never take a side.

a bookworm, who doesn't fit the stariotye.
