I am a poet,
and I stand tall.
None of my friends are,
they are too young to understand...
But that doesnt change anything,
for I am poet,
and I stand tall.
They dont apprehend a poets life like mine,
For they are too young in the mind,
maybe not wise enough?
But that doesnt change anything,
for I am a poet and I stand tall.
I am not beautiful,
I am not extremely smart,
I am not phenomenal at any sport,
BUT I am a poet,
and I stand tall.
