Jane Doe


I'm hurt

and you can take that any way you want

I wish I could have been more interesting

you said everyone's predictable

If only I could have surprised you

I always did think I was basic

and average

I wanted to feel more special

wanted to know if a total stranger

would find me striking and intriguing

maybe you found that in me for just a bit

but in the end you must have thought I 

was like everyone else
