Myself

by Sonya   Aug 2, 2004


There use to be someone else
Walking in my body
She painted her face
Without the need

She dressed to perfect
And she walked with too little confidence
She tried to say the smart things
Tried to say all the right things

But never was she happy
With they way it turned out
Whats wrong with my
Is all she said
It had no end

Till a day where life came clear
This person she was pretending to be
Didn't exist
Wasn't suppose to be
So this is were I became me

My face is a blank canvas
I'm comfortable in my attire
I walk and i know
I'm the person who lay ed inside of me
I don't pretend any more

Its not a style
Or a figure
Its not a color
Or a shape
Its my smile
And my eyes
Tell you who i am
And who i never want to be

I say everything that comes to mind
Don't care if it doesn't make sense
Don't care if i get it wrong
Don't care if its even what everyone wants
I just care that i can finally live a day
Within my self
And know i

That i am me
This is who Ive always
Wanted to be
