Linus

Sometimes I laugh 

Sometimes I cry. 

Sometimes I'm spontaneous 

Sometimes I'm shy. 

Either way 

I fumble through my steps 

As life passes by. 

Sometimes I think about the 'what ifs'

And the 'buts' and the 'maybes', 

The 'should I' and 'should nots'

The strings all tugging and tying Into knots. 

A walking talking oxymoron 

If only people would see that I'm not that strong 

Because underneath it all 

I feel as though I don't belong  

The struggle each day as I step into the reflective pool,

Drowning 

Yet having to play it cool. 

Sigh 

Sometimes it's the ones who seem to have it all together 

Who have traversed through the toughest weather. 

Yet, not ask me my pains and I'll tell you no struggles 

Because in the end it's all seemingly good
