Why I Am Who I Am
Why I'm so reclusive in my life
Is something I've come to realize...
What the main key to my self's strife.
Analyzed this reason before;
I have done so many times more.
When among strangers,
There are few who click with me
And are within my personality's range.
Fears and conclusions
Which I consider dangers
Used to be illusions.
Illusions become reality
And thus my own morality
Is to befriend those
Who feel lonely.
I do not want to always approach people,
For I do not know them
And would like it if they
Got to know me first.
My family know me so well.
Yet my cousins are changing.
My mind is still trying to
Rearrange these growing-up
Thoughts and feelings of mine.
