The life of a young woman is boundless and untamed
There is no way of telling where she will go next or who she will become
The crazy twirl that destincts
Who she is
The girl I was years ago is gone
Perhaps she grew to see the truth
It isn't me, the girl you want
She is no longer me
She is no longer young, no longer seen
Don't think that I'm bitter
Don't think I'm mean
I'm not selfish, conceided or anything inbetween
I'm a stranger in your world
You don't know me, don't know my strengths
You don't know me, don't know my weaknesses
You know my name
You know my name
I'm more than my name, shame on you for beneathing me
Soon I will be gone, off to start on my own
Too bad you won't be part, too bad you won't even know
I lost it months ago
But you would never know
Only judging based off what you hear or see
Like a stain on a shirt, you left your mark on me
I have guided myself through this world of blue
To march on longer I had to be smarter
Girls get lost
They get caught up along the way
Girls get lost
They turn their backs on eachother
Why do we live in a world where we attack
Just because I am white or black
I am not like you, I have my own dreams
I am not like you, I want to wear my own things
Trying to shape us into clones
Looks are most important
But none of us look the same
Skin, hair and facial features make a unique terrain
But why do you change your look or alter to be like her?
We learn to be insecure
Not who we are bursting to be
I will not give you the power
I am not looking to be like you or her
I am different
I am not the girl that you usually see
Call me an over-acheiver, call me fat
Call me a loser, call me a brat
Your words mean nothing to me
For that I know-
I am me and I am wonderful
I do not need you, or a Mr.Wonderful
I strive to be different
I strive to be pure
I strive to be independent
I strive to be secure
I will never be the words you say
I will never be the girl you read
Your opinions will never mean anything to me
I will never treat you wrong
I will never not be polite
For in your sake, I will pray for you that everything be alright
In my hopes and dreams I wish you a good life
I do not know you and I do not hold your life
Bless you, Bless you, Bless you, I hope you can sleep tonight
My life had been a disaster
My life had been a delight
My life had been a mystery
My life had been a guess, I found myself somehow regardless of the mess
You will not find me shopping at the store you like
You will not find me partying through the night
You will not find me crying over a boy that didn't treat me right
Because I know who I am
And I know what I like
I know what I deserve and I will never lose sight
This is me, I am here
I can not wait to start
Although, it may never end
Meeting you has impacted me
And leaving you will too
Beautiful I am, in more ways than one
My looks, my drive, my mind
I am perfectly happy with who I am
Thinking about it makes me proud
Someday I will change the world
Glad to be free
Judge me for your reasons, or no reason at all
One perfectly imperfect girl
Judge them for your reasons, or no reason at all
One perfectly imperfect world
