Let It Be Me

LET IT BE ME Let it be me How hard can it be? Is it so difficult to see? And just let it be me? To be me Is not easy to be No one understand No one can stand It's hard to believe People don't know! The life that I live beyond the shadow They put me aside They don't know my side! They shut me down! They turn me down! Pretend and be accepted Be me and be rejected Living deceivingly Is living gruelingly... To be me is sanity Solemnity And Humility... I just want to be me. With hardly any friends With family that lessened Its quality more than quantity What is important is to be me. @Copyright Meline Ngo. August 31, 2015

Because honestly I've gained and lost so many friends. And some I've noticed looking back that they really weren't even true friends after all. Great job -LU
