I am below a zero, a zero I am a dash, a quiet hero Mellowness and meekness is what I seek and I am proud Humility, love, desire, benevolence, bravery and confidence is what I beseech I am but a dash in your eyes...silence within speaks loud I will be practicing my solitude speech while you practice what you preach! I am not a crazy colon I am a soul, oh so alone I can't stand hearing your apostrophes scream at me constantly... You're speaking loud, but I'm ignoring on purpose honestly... I am the numbers and letters of your heart apparently I am not a comma because I don't pause for you to catch up frankly Keep up with my wondrously-made writing skills Or you can always pay up the upcoming bills You're flawless, regardless of annoying me I am bewildered, yet comforted suddenly I am but a dash, a hero of I-forgive-you I live for your echoes of empathy so true I am not a crazy colon: I am not a comma, I will say it in apostrophes: "I am a dash and that's that -"
