That's Just Me


I suck at writing poetry I suck at making tea I suck at doing Calculus And I have two left feet I suck at making small talk Public speaking is a dread I suck at calming babies And I can’t make my bed I’m no good at doing laundry My clothes turn out so strange But still there are good things in me that I would never change I’m good at watching movies My fingers weirdly bend I’m good at writing stories And I’m a lifelong friend I’m great at learning languages Life’s taught me to adapt And if you want to hear it, I know I’ll make you laugh I can remember faces A name I won’t forget And when it comes down to it, school I mostly get I have big dreams inside for who I want to be I’ll try my best in everything No challenge will break me I want to go to college Learn everything I can But first I need a little push Perhaps a helping hand I’ll make my mom and dad real proud I’ll be a college grad I’ll raise my cup I’ll say three cheers And my tea will still be bad
