This is me…

I am not who you want me to be
I can never be that idea, you see
You want me to fit in a format
I can only be boring and flat.

I am interesting in my own way
Not quite like the others, they say
I really want to be someone else
But it doesn’t seem to gel

I am rude and lovely
I am polite and fastidious
I love to be alone
I love attention

All thru my life
I tried to measure upto you
But then I realised
I wasn’t ever going to succeed.

I am me and you are you
You can’t be me
And now,
I don’t want to be you.

I enjoy being myself
And I wouldn’t like any other way
I accept who I am
And now I don’t give a damn!
