Somebody
As I sat down and watched tv, tension had suddenly rushed to my head
I stood up and began to pace
Many thoughts crossed my mind
As I started to feel disgraced
I soon left the house and headed for the park
I sat under the cherry tree which had brown bark
I then heard laughter
I turned to see
Just many jovial lives
Having fun with their friends and families
Everywhere I turned, everywhere I looked
I saw nothing but happiness
I stood there and my hands just shook
I pondered and pondered
But it didn't seem like I would get an answer
I felt so dejected
I had no one to talk to
I felt as if though I've just been rejected
I don't understand why my so called "friends" seem to ignore
It seems that everytime I try to talk to them they tend to bore
Do I want attention and stare?
No, not at all
I just want someone to care
People surround me as I sit and watch in the park
I felt as if though I was left in the dark
I don't ask for much
Not money or jewels and such
All I ask for is a relationship
A kind, loving friendship
I want a friendship in which I can talk openly
A friendship in which my friend acts lovingly
But for now, till that friend comes
I will stay myself
And I surely won't be someone elses little elf
Because you know what?
I will always live in the present, not in the past nor the future.
And lastly,
I'm not anybody
I'm Somebody
and I represent myself differently
