The shy girl in the corner,
the one that hardly says a word.
That one that hides behind her hair,
when it comes to be her turn.
That's who they think I am,
because that's the facade that I show.
But there's another side to me,
that they may never know.
I'm not always quiet,
sometimes I don't shut up.
I'm fairly optimistic,
so I see a half full cup.
I like to run and play,
just like a little girl.
I have an imagination,
larger than this world.
I care about nature,
and hold those I love deep in my heart.
In songs I sing loud,
at my favorite part.
Yes, I like corners,
they make me feel safe.
But that doesn't mean,
I don't have a smile on my face.
My friends are all crazy,
but I don't think that's bad.
They make my life fun,
and me a little "Mad".
And never judge by size,
because I know I'm not alone.
Though I may not be very big,
my heart's not fully grown.
So I may seem quiet,
but you can see that's not the case.
Even my short stories are long winded,
I need to set a better pace.
I may seem smart,
but even my grades start to fall.
Sometimes I appear to understand everything,
when I understand nothing at all.
I'm such a big writer,
I hear my characters in my head.
And when I cant sleep,
I make new scenes before bed.
Looks can be decieving,
add my name to the list.
I'm not who you think I am.
And, well, you get the gist.

Another poem for a scholarship. This one I did submit. I also recorded myself saying it.
Next month I have trip.. I should be able to get a few more pictures to be able to post. So might be able to chill out with the writing.
