Under the Surface

by Spring aged 9 1/2

I’m not like her you see…
I keep my boundaries
because I’m fine in my jeans and this old T
facing reality when I’m with you three.
You like her and not me…
but it’s hard to keep my mouth shut
when I know too much about you.
It’s hard to say I don’t care
when all I do is stare around you.
But I know when we go together
much better than you two…
’cause she doesn’t know your middle name
or how you tie your shoes,
the face you make behind your mates,
when their mad at you.
She doesn’t know you flip your hair
when you’re nervous…
or how you really are…
under he surface.
I’m not like her you see…
She found love at fifteen
I keep my boundaries
because I’m fine in my jeans and this old T
facing reality when I’m with you three.
You like her and not me…
but it’s hard to keep my mouth shut
when I know too much about you.
It’s hard to say I don’t care
when all I do is stare around you.
But I know when we go together
much better than you two…
’cause she doesn’t know your middle name
or how you tie your shoes,
the face you make behind your mates,
when their mad at you.
She doesn’t know you flip your hair
when you’re nervous…
or how you really are…
under the surface.
Under the surface
I know we go together
so much better then you two.
She doesn’t know your middle name
Or how you tie your shoes…
the face you make behind your mates..
when they’re mad at you…
she doesn’t know you flip your hair when you’re nervous..
or how you really are under the surface…
Under the ssurface…
