i don't know who she is.
she hoards song lyrics
on tiny scraps of paper
and keeps them in a jar
on the top shelf

where no one will ever see themyet the world has
every once in a while
she whispers them aloud
in the calmness of the dark
where she's alone but we're never aloneshe's the kind of girl
who prefers to eat lunch alone
and hates her friendsbut no one knows thatisn't it clear?she's quiet
& shy
& lonely
& hates the worldbut they will never know thatthey think she's funny
& outgoing
& friendly
& optimisticthey only hear what they want to.
