just be myself

I’m not going to be able to please everyone. I just wanna be myself and accept that everyone will not like me.

I’m always finding myself trying to act like someone else.

However hard this world tries to change me

I JUSSSSSST WANT TO BE MYSELF

respond authentically- not feeling friendly?-don’t have to be nice. Want to just sit and not listen. don’t listen….
Want to say I Love You, I am sorry, I don’t like you, any more you piss me off. I don’t agree. I don’t like it. I don’t trust you. Say it. Imagine. Can you?

In the mirror she looks
she sees a girl
happy and excited
happy and laughing
no worries and no fears
In the mirror she looks
she sees a girl
holding back her tears
daddys drunk
and going away
well he should after he’s treated us this way
In the mirror she looks
she sees a girl
holding back her tears
tired and exhausted
aching in pain
In the mirror she looks
she sees a girl
holding back her tears
mommys still at work
she starts to cook and clean
for her little brothers and sisters she’d do anything
In the mirror she looks
holding back her tears
she sees a girl
holding back her tears
walking to class
silent and slow
with the whole world on her back she doesn’t seem to mind
she strolls
In the mirror she can’t look
she can’t take it anymore
not wanting to open her eyes
but she can’t just leave them closed
She opens her eyes
in the mirror she looks
she just saw her whole life before her eyes
...now she cries

all the time.

I want to just be myself, regardless of the circumstances.
