A/N: Ah hah! Two new poems in one day! Don't I just feel prolific... that's my favourite word of the moment. Prolific. T'is pretty. This is one of my older poems (which I suppose defies the purpose of calling it a 'new' poem) As I said in the A/N for Tell Me I'm Pretty, I could rewrite this and spend hours editing it, but I have fond memories of German lessons spent scribbling down verses in my planner, and I don't want to trample all over my younger self's pride and joy. (cuddles younger self.)
Younger Self: (shuffles away to write more scary poetry) GERROFF. YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND ME!
Ahem...
Psycho
Don’t tell yourself that I’m insane,
You shouldn’t think I’m mad.
It’s true I have a damaged brain,
But it’s really not that bad.
All right, maybe I’m a psycho,
Teenagers can be worse.
If I called myself an emo,
Then you’d shout and curse.
But still, I’m not a bad girl,
I never swear or smoke.
One murder shouldn’t make you hurl-
It shouldn’t make you choke.
I only stabbed him once though,
And it was Valentine’s Day.
His present to me lacked a pretty bow,
And for that he had to pay.
So please don’t be getting angry,
Please don’t take offence.
I’ll stab you before you stab me,
It’s only self-defence.
You see, I’m also quite neurotic,
The world is out to get me.
They think I’m too psychotic,
But it’s just the way I like to be.
