A Sisters Plea For Acceptance

I'm not sure what you think of me
I'm not sure that you know
You tried to make me out to be
In your perfect little row

I'm not the type of person
who conforms with all the rest
Rest assure that when I'm done
My life will be proven blessed

Do you care to understand
The things that I enjoy?
Or would you rather reprimand
All the fun that I employ

I cannot make you love me
I do not have that power
though I long to have you see
I am an amazing flower

I thrive in the hottest sunlight
I soar in the coldest snow
In the rain I take to flight
In the wind I continue to glow

My lifes not on a timeline
I have no stoneset plans
But your blood is as mine
So please love me for who I am.
