I Am Who I'm Meant To Be

It kills me inside to not be able to say this

It kills me even more when I hear people say 'your just confused

All the girls your age goes through this, its normal'

But what they do not know is how I really feel.

 

The intoxication I have inside of me is killing me more and more as the days go by

The intoxication is accumulating so one day it can eventually kill me

But what will kill me is not the intoxication but your rejection

Your rejection and not being able to accept who I am

Who I truly am.

 

No, I am not that little girl anymore who used to play with her dolls

Who would always listen to what you said, obeyed, and would never say no 

Now its time for you to listen to me and understand that I have changed

 

No matter how many times I tried not to change and think of all this 'confusion' I could not change back

Why?

Because its who I truly am 

I am still going to be the same funny, honest, and intelligent girl

But just with a little extra thing in there.

 

It all started with one kiss, then another, and another until...

One day I said to myself 'Is this just for fun or for real?'

And after years of figuring it out, it was just for her entertainment

She brought my hopes up for nothing

But you know what she brought them up for a reason

Therefore I finally found out who I am

Who I truly am?

 

People may say its wrong and disgusting

But you know what?

Who cares what they say

Because I am who I am meant to be and I will not change for anybody.
