The Other Side of Me
I know it seems I can’t do anything right
I know I feel useless at times
I know I am useless
I know I never was smart
I know I never was strong
I know I was never the one to look to the bright side
I know I was never the fun one
I know I was never the wild one
I know I never fit in with anyone
I know I could never make anyone smile
I know I could never make anyone happy
I could only read
None get awards for that
I know I could write
But none get congrats on that
I know I am always out place
I know I never belong
But none have known my life
I have tried to open up
Let them try to belong
To let them in
But they cast me away
Because I was different
Because I wasn’t one of them
I know I’m not like anyone else.
I am just me
I hope that is enough for you
To let you in my life
To let you see
The Other Side of Me
