| 'Feel Stupid' popped into my head while some coworkers of mine were arguing ethics. It seemed like all I kept saying was "I don't get it" or "I don't understand how someone could do that". Some people have argued that this poem doesn't have a good ending. Well, frankly, it doesn't have an end. One of the things I'm good at (or bad at depending on your point of view) is arguing ethics. This poem could probably stretch over a few dozen pages. And who knows, it very well may wind up like that. |
| There's so much I don't understand It makes me feel so stupid Because they're simple things Things that any intelligent person could get So maybe I'm stupid Because I can't understand why people disguise the way they feel Maybe I'm dumb Because I don't understand the fear of responsibility Maybe I'm not as smart as you Because I don't see the reason behind classes Why would a rich person be better than me? Is it the lavish expenses? The million dollar estate, thirty foot yaght? Diamonds? Rubies? So what if I'm stupid Because I don't see the lust in money Who cares if I'm dumb Because I don't see why jewels win out over personality Is there a problem if I'm not as smart as you Because I don't know when love lost it's definition How could you crave love so badly you'd lead someone on While you turn around the next night and go off with someone else Is it boredom that strikes? Or the fear of commitment? Why starve yourself when you need it that bad? So I'm stupid Because I believe in everlasting love Maybe I'm just dumb Because I believe in waiting And I just might be a little less intelligent than you Because I believe in being faithful |
