Good Enough

Feeling used, 
Always.
Never good enough, 
For anyone.
Often these thoughts
Flood my head.
Being told I’m not good enough,
Being told I should change 
For their satisfaction.
NO
I won’t change,
Because you don’t like
The person that I am.
I am who I am,
And I will not feel as though
I am not enough,
I wont change who I am 
Because you don’t like who I am.
I am who I am, and you can deal with it. 
My life,
Try and change me,
Then watch me as I walk away.
