I Wish (From the Point of View of Melody from the Book, “Out of my Mind”)

I wish people could see

The girl on the inside,

But no

They look at the outside

I really do know things

Like math, science, and reading,

But they will never know

When they look at the outside

I may not look intelligent

But actually, I am,

And they will never know

When they look at the outside

I am a fun person

I like to have a good time,

But they will never know

When they look at the outside

I feel like a ghost

But the truth is

I’m here,

But they will never know

When they look at the outside

I just want to fit in

And be with the cool kids,

But they will never know

When they look at the outside

I want to have lots of friends

And have everyone like me,

I think you’d like me

If you just give me a chance,

But they will never know

When they look at the outside

I wish people could see

The girl on the inside,

But no

They look at the outside
