I'm just me

Views (199) Other Created on 7-9-07 Flag

Afraid of your judgement I keep things inside

Put up a curtain

Feeling uncertain

Terrified of disappointing you I put on a front

Building a wall

Feeling small

Perplexed at your reactions I don't know how to be

I want you to know

I can only be me

 

I constantly question why you won't accept who I am

But maybe you can't see

Because I've deeply hidden me

I wonder what would happen if my cracks start to show

Myself spilling out

Walls crumble down

I hope you'd let by gones be just that

I want you to see

I can only be me

 

I can only be me

Beacuse that's who I am

I want to stand tall

Declare to them all

I can only be me

And I'm not such bad news

I will let me show

I'll start to let go

I'm just me

This is it

Like it or don't

Take it or leave it

It may sting or hurt a bit

But whatever you think

I'm just ............me

Jeremy062902 It has always amazed me how we unwittingly drift into becoming something molded by another's perceptions of who we are. It is only until later we discover we aren't that person at all, then we fear disappointing others for finally discovering who we were all along. I like this. Very well written!
