It's kind of fun to do the impossible

I am
Hyper in the morning, waking with the sun
Falling asleep in class just so you will laugh when I twitch.
Sitting at the reject table and having more fun than the cheerleaders.
Going against the flow
Just so I can be me.

I want
Living a life I can look back and be happy about
Being proud of who I am
Standing out from the crowd
No regrets

These are my motos,
The usual, respect
Integrity
Loyalty
I am air force strong
Artistic fun

Sometimes I cry
Most times I laugh
It's better than being stone.
