Simple Girl by: Jennie Camile
A bit outlandish
No that will never be me
The wall… I’ve found it
And it hasn’t warmed up to setting me free
See I’m a simple minded, simple girl
But my soul is deeper than any ocean of this world
If you’d like to know me
I could show you around
But I must be honest
I won’t apologize for what is found
I ache every single day
I burst into laughter for no reason at all
I cry when someone walks away
Resentments are abundant like pictures on my wall
But I love deeply and I don’t let go
For all I give, I deserve a lot, you know?
Sometimes I settle for less
A lack of self confidence I guess
I’m not needy and I hate talking on the phone
I value every second I get to spend alone
A bit over the top
No I’m pretty even keel
The back row… that’s my spot
And I’ll do anything to stay concealed
See I’m a blend in and take notes kind of girl
But there are moments when I shine and own the world
If you’d like to see
I could give you a tour
But promise to let it be
I’m not asking to be cured
I cannot watch the news
I start to fear the world and resent
All the horrible new ways people abuse
It all adds to my lament
But I love to go outside and feel the beach
How the end of the horizon is out of reach
Sometimes I ache to sail away
Sadly I’ve tied myself to the bay
I’m self hindering and I fear way too much
I’ve known so many kindred spirits, but we’ve lost touch…
A whole lot of cynical
No I’m still hopeful and idealistic
To you, my life might seem dull
But that just means you’re not very artistic
See I don’t need spotlights or my name on a marquee
I’m a simple girl – content crafting behind the scenes
And if someday recognition happened to find me
This same simple, humble girl I’d be…
