Just Because...

Just because I’m smart doesn’t mean I don’t have feelings.

Doesn’t mean I don’t work hard.

Doesn’t mean everything comes easy.

And doesn’t mean I don’t hurt.

Just because I’m smart doesn’t mean I don’t have feelings.

Doesn’t mean I don’t worry about grades.

Doesn’t mean I don’t stress over projects.

Doesn’t mean I don’t become frustrated.

Just because I’m smart doesn’t mean I don’t have feelings.

Doesn’t mean I don’t struggle.

Doesn’t mean I’m not stressed for time.

Doesn’t mean I’m perfect.

Just because I’m smart doesn’t mean I don’t have feelings.

Why can’t we be friends?

Why am I different?

Why am I supposed to be perfect?

We’re all people; we’re not that different.
