Im That Girl

im that girl
in the corner of the room
maybe in front or back
possibly sitting next to you

im that girl
who unless around her friends is as shy as can be
i don't really talk
and in social situation i flee

im that girl
who seems to stand proud and tall
when in realtiy
i feel incredibly small

im that girl
who is more than a slight nerd 
or maybe a geek
which ever you prefer

im that girl
who seems to know what to do
when the fact of the matter is 
i really have no clue

im that girl
you don't know my name
you don't know who i am 
but to you its all the same

im that girl
the one you know nothing about
im just in your classes
to that there is no doubt

im that girl
you'd never guess who felt alone
that gilr thats so confused
cuz she's trying to find a home

im that girl
who isnt what she seems
where your nightmare are my reality
and your reality is her dream

im that girl
who you tese day after day
but what you dont see 
is that im fading away

What a very unusual name you have - I really liked your poem for it speaks from the Soul - Often in life people never realize how other people truly feel - You have expressed yourself very well in this poem - Spell check is a wonderful tool to have - I love your open honesty regarding your poem - God Bless, MJ
