The Simple Rhyme Scheme

My clothes are all over the room
Throw old papers on the floor
Picked up later to resume
What I'd never finished before

Laugh when no one is looking
Flirt when everyone stares
It's poisoned if it's my cooking
Feels weird to, but throw away my cares

Dance to music that plays in my head
Enjoy it when the people turn to look
Start dreaming before I get to bed
Sit in the library and read every book

Disappear and reappear as I wish
Speak my mind when it pleases me
Sit like a guy but walk with a little swish
Take it as I am or just go let me be

Eat Popsicles on a walk in winter
Smile at you and tap my foot
Promises to hug for a working printer
Everything's a mess but I know where it's put

    This is probably my favorite part of the whole poem. I really liked reading this because it's really different from so many of the poems I've read before. Thanks for entering the contest.
