Creep

When you were here before Couldn't look you in the eye You're just like an angel Your skin makes me cry You float like a feather In a beautiful world I wish I was special You're so special But I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo What the hell am I doing here? I don't belong here. I don't care if it hurts I wanna have control I wanna a perfect body I wanna a perfect soul I want you to notice When I'm not around You're so ' special I wish I was special But I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo What the hell am I doing here? I don't belong here. Lyrics to Creep by Radio Head You stare at my ebony skin, and say it's too dark . You say my nose is too wide and my lips are too full. I think something is wrong with me. Am I not beautiful? You stare at me and call me fat because I'm not a size 5. I think something is wrong with me. Am I not beautiful? I wish you could see that I'm the same as you. Why do you make me feel like I don't belong or like something from outer space? When I'm a part of the human race. You hate me for know reason. I don't want to be here , nor do I want stay here. 11-9-16 Alexis Y Contest: Creep Sponor: Silent One

I love this poem, Alexis. It is gritty, hard-hitting in-your-face truth-telling. My kind of territory. You don't shy away from controversy. You say: I'm dealing it out, so deal w/it. Cool writing this poem is. Much love from the RW.

This is fitting for the contest, but I hope this is fictional, Alexis:)

This better NOT be how you feel or I'll have to come there AGAIN. For the contest, it is great, for real life, not so good. You put a lot of emotion into angst and wrote a hard hitting poem, Alexis. Good luck in the contest, beautiful one ... CayCay

It sounds like he is the creep to me. This sounds angry but it seems to be only acting as a screen for the hurt. This is sad Alexis but I think it fits that contest nicely. Good luck my friend.
