[bodytext] => Fools Gold January 3, 2004 I am not what you think. I do not smile, I do not cry. Emotionless I am. My eyes tell lies, I hold no truth. I can make you believe, That you need, What I can give. But I cannot, And do not, Have a thing, For you. I may look fine, But inside I hide. From the dark, from the truth, From myself, from you. I am not what you think. To hide my tears, I do blink, And shrink, so I try not to think. I never write in ink because it's there to stay, And nothing in my life is ever that way. What I need, And what I want, Are of sideline importance. Because I am not what you think. I wait, To delegate, The rules of my life, Rules to live by. I am not what you think, Because all that glimmers is not gold, And my stories have been told, And sold, To your ignorant mind. Not my kind. Don't you see? I am not you think you think I should be.
