Parfait's have layers, and I do to.

I am the girl that sits in the back of the classroom, observing in silence.

Yet I am also the girl that sits in the front. Giving all the right answers.

And I am also the girl that sits in the middle, who tells a joke that everyone laughs at.

I am the girl that sits alone at lunch, and sometimes I don't sit at all. 

I am the girl that sits with her friends, but never starts, nor finishes conversations.

I am the girl that people want to sit with, because they enjoy my presence.

I am the girl that hides in her room, because nobody would ever want me around.

I am the girl that stays at home, because there's no reasom to leave.

I am the girl that goes to bed early, because I can wake up early with ease.

I am the girl that is anxious,

I am the girl that is ambivalent, but content.

I am the girl that is confident, motivated, and loved.

. . .

And I am all of them.

I am the girl that sits in the front of the class, silent.

Except for the jokes I whisper out occasionally.

And I am the girl that sits with her 3 friends, and though I do not speak,

I know they like sitting with me.

I am the girl that stays home, but I have no problem with that.

 I am me, and I am comprised of many parts. I am an amalgimation of contradicting thoughts and feelings, and yes it does get confusing sometimes. 

But that is who I am, and I am satisfied with that. 

After all, It's all in my head.
