MISunderstood

MISunderstood

Confusing, distracting,
Emotional, ravenous,
All of which are
MISunderstood.

Happy, compassionate,
Lonely, breathtaking,
All of which are also
MISunderstood.

There’s a cloud over my head,
A blur in my eyes,
A hole in my beating heart and I am
MISunderstood.

People choose to judge me,
Others decide to hate me,
Those that truly know me understand I feel
MISunderstood.

I try to express my emotions,
Explain myself to people,
But not one gets it or me, because I’m
MISunderstood.

If I had it my way,
I’d scream it to the world,
That it’s simply okay to be
MISunderstood.

I would tell them all to listen,
open their eyes and ears,
And then they would know I may not have to be
MISunderstood,
Anymore.
