what I see myself as.


I think of myself as the color blue.

It depends on the shade of how much it stands out.

Could be very dark or very light

But u can decide to make things right.

And that is why i'm so blue.

 

I see myself as a monkey

Always trying to learn new things

But sometime I can act like a fool.

Although I may do well In school

Most of the time I am too cool.

 

I see myself as a teeter totter.

Can always go either way.

Do I choose what's right or go with the crowd  

People say I could do both now

I hope I can choose the right way.
