Just Me

I dance because I know
nothing else. I cry because
I don't know what else to do.
I'm not a hero, or even a
little exciting. I'm just me.
I do try to hard to love, I
just want to be happy. I suppose
as well I try too hard to be
loved...but each failure gets
harder to take. I smile because
no one likes to hear some one
complain or vent. I wiggle myself
into situations anyone else
would try to avoid. I'm not pretty,
I'm not unique. I'm just me.
I tend to take things too seriously.
I even believe bull-shit lines
I've used myself. I try to just
go with the flow, but apparently
I make too big of a deal out of things.
I'm tired, and I can't feel anything
any more. I'm just me.
