I Am Me
I am a person and I make mistakes
I have real emotions
Unlike the ones that everyone else fakes
I am imperfect and I have flaws
I try my best to do what is right
But there have been times I’ve broken some laws
I have temptations which sometimes make me weak
They lead me different directions
I lose my way searching for the path that I seek
I try to be kind but sometimes im not
Sometimes I should me more careful with my words
I have lost many battles which I fought
I have loved and I have lost left with a broken heart
I have broken others
Punishing them for the ones who tore mine apart
I have regrets which I can never let go of despite how much I try
I may pretend not to be affected
But we all know that’s a lie
I forgive those I shouldn’t allowing them back in when I should walk away
I have allowed others to mistreat me
And I have mistreated others in the same way
I’ve been taken for granted time and again
I’ve been lied to
And betrayed by a fake friend
I have pushed away friendships time and again
Afraid to trust
Unable to mend
