Differences

There's a difference between you and me Unfortunately no one opens up enough to see Trust amd respect is what we are told But being the nice guy is getting old While growing into the woman i am today I made a few bad choices along the way Family, friends and strangers too Will always have their own opinion of you My past is something i cannot escape Because everyone is holding onto my mistakes Im not the same girl you knew last year If given the chance you'll have nothing to fear No lies, no games, no bull i promise I may hurt your feelings but ill always be honest I wanna be friends and give you a shout Say that to a man n he thinks ill put out Changing my ways n doing things right Yet friendships n relationships still end in a fight What am i doing wrong to all of you Im trying my best yet im still getting screwed Second chances are given n im always there But when im in need all i see is an empty chair Do i turn my back n become a Turn on and off like a light switch Because thats what i see in everyone i know I cant take it no more its starting to show My walls are up high n very tight I wont let them down without one hell of a fight I wanna be shown that im important n special Seems to me that its just to stressful Im sorry for the things ive said n done I wish that forgiveness will be given by someone Almost 30 and its been a crazy life I just wanna stop paying the price I've learned my lesson n laid in my bed Wont do it again, id rather be dead All i want is to be given a chance I think i deserve another look, another glance If not just know i do understand I realize got way outta hand Even if you wont give me a try My life ill live with my head held high Yes there's a difference between you n me Im going to let go n finally be free!

We all change, Dana, hopefully always for the better, and we must always be patient with those around us and give them time to accept the person we have become. This is a well written raw, honest piece. Welcome to Poetry Soup. John
