I am Untrainable
No one can tell me how to be
I am Untamable
You can't curb this personality
Yet I work my tail off
Trying to conform
Looking for a way to succeed
Attempting to be normal-
But somehow
It always goes back
To the same old me.
I hide my frustrations
Bury them under my fears.
The ones locked in my diary
So nobody ever has to hear.
I get so tired
Of being Untouchable
The girl so innocent...
They think my perseverance
is Unstoppable.
But I am a failure.
I'm absolutely sure of this.
And though I'm now 16
I've never even been kissed.
Am I that Unlovable?
I just need to be reassured
Is there comfort in my future?
Is there sunshine at my door?
I just need to know.
Need to be sure
That before my story ends
One day, Someday (soon?)
I'll meet someone and not be just friends.
But for now I must stay
Must be locked behind doors
Untrainable
Untamable
Unattainable
Untouchable
(Seemingly) Unstoppable
and worst of all
Unlovable
Perhaps for a moment
But maybe, Forever more.
