The Show

poem by: Mistie Lovelace
Written on Jun 01, 2016

I know I am nuts, that is ok because I wasn't shooting for normal anyway.
I love being this way, I enjoy being unique,I'M good at pretending to be sweet.
I can fit in and be like all the others, I have tried and succeeded but being the same almost drove me insane.
Society is the only thing I can blame.
People go through life being so intense, 
let me tell you... not everything has to make sense!
Life isn't like a box of chocolates, it's more like a pail of cow crap.
So please stop, y'all are killing me with the bright and cheery, we all know you are tired and weary.
