Is it because of my fast speaking
or just the way I look?
Are you annoyed 'cause I turn
up the music while I cook?
Or because I sing along
in all the wrong accords?
Maybe it's because I get sick
on train, on car, on plain, on board
but still do all these things
and then cry when the sickness starts?
Or is it just 'cause I've got
spots on nearly all my body parts?
Oh, now I know - It is because
I jump up in the air
when I am happy, lucky, free
Well, okay, now to be fair
this annoyes my friends as well
But I just need this for expression
And also I think : what the hell?
Should I just stick with my depression
'Cause you might like me when I'm quite
or when I'd stop beeing so childish,
do snsible, full of emotions,
so freaky, passionate, loud and wildish?
Of course I could...I mean, I might.
But would you like me more
if I'd be in a constant inner fight?
Maybe it isn't even this
that you don't like about myself
Maybe there's something I miss
Some guilty pleasure you found out
like rolling earrings, biting nails
or whom this poem is about
Well, maybe you just don't like me
and there's no reason to be named
Or - if not thit - it is
'cause I am always so ashamed
to talk to strangers and mutual friends
which seems to you like pure refusal
since I am full of convidence
Well, normally, when all is usual
But when you're near my faults come through
My dumb discussions with invented facts
My total agreement on something I never knew
My obvious hints on secrets I'm trusted to keep
My list of everything interesting I do
My weird confessions of mumbling while I sleep
And all this other stupid stuff
When all I wonder 'bout is why?
Like, honestly, why isn't me liking you enough?
Why do you have to look at my deformed knees
and the rolled-of part of my ear?
What's wrong with my obsession with sun shining through tress?
Don't you like me because of my gigantic nose
under little, swollen eyes?
Or 'cause of my thousand beauty spots
even found on one of my elbows?
Do you not like me 'cause of my love for Captain Jack,
the Disney familiy, Queen and everything
surrounding Iron Man and the Widow in Black?
Well, let me tell you,
What ever it is you don't like about
my laugh, my life or even my looks :
You are missing out!
