never finding anything, my heart torn.
But still, I would choose this path,
For it is in your presence, I find my worth.
No matter how much I suffer, I laugh,
When I am with you, I feel rebirth.
You call me smart, and I cannot deny,
That my mind races, always questioning why.
But it is this intelligence that sets me apart,
And makes me see the world with a different eye.
Yes, I may overthink and analyze too much,
But it is because I crave a deeper touch.
I want to understand, to uncover the truth,
To dig beneath the surface, beyond what's smooth.
So, let the world be fooled by shallow lies,
I'll embrace my intelligence, without disguise.
For it is a gift, a blessing, I've come to see,
That I can navigate life with clarity.
Sure, I may struggle with feelings of doubt,
Thinking I'm dumb, as I constantly shout.
But it is in this humility that I truly grow,
Learning that there is always more to know.
So, yes, I am smart, and I'll proudly proclaim,
That my mind moves at a million miles a minute, untamed.
I may not get along with most people, it's true,
But I see the beauty in being different, in being you.
I will embrace my intelligence, my unique view,
And let it guide me in all that I pursue.
Because being smart is not a problem, but a gift,
A reminder that the world needs minds that uplift.
So, I'll continue to think, to question, to explore,
Knowing that my intelligence is worth so much more.
And as I navigate life's twists and turns,
I'll revel in the knowledge that my mind truly yearns.
