Accept Me As I Am Today

'Accept me me as I am today' Accept me as I am today Not old me 'fraid she can't stay Don't make me feel it's in my head One more excuse to stay in bed You think that I want life like this? You must be kidding, this pain ain't bliss You want me to dance and laugh, go out Not show you how it is, hide pout Don't judge me for the way I feel Sorry I lost my sex appeal Can feel you fall away from me The bond that glued like roots of tree When dare to challenge tell sad truth As pain gets 'real' don't hit the roof So I pretend again that all's ok So you can think you heard me say "Yes you're right, of course 'I'm fine'" Throw in another made up line You don't really want to hear sad truth None left the strength of fun led youth 'Accept me as I am today' Victoria Payne https://m.facebook.com/groups/Poemsbyvictoriapayne/
