I Wonder


Don’t look at me like that,

Just take a good look at the pain in my heart 

that you’ve already caused.

Don’t call me that.

I’m not lonely, I’m just conservative.

I'm not a genius,

but i’m definitely not stupid.

Your ignorance will only annoy me.

I really am nice, believe me.

But I can never get too close to someone,

or i’ll lose it.

What about us?

I wonder if I can just ignore the comments.

I wonder if society can correct itself.

I wonder if we can live as good people.

I wonder.
