I Am

I am different	I am a daughter who sometimes can’t be seen
A friend who has bee around once too many times
A girl who’s life is not complete
Something is changing me
I’m not the little girl I used to be
I am different; I’m sure you can see
Nobody cares but everyone stares
I’m like a firefly floating in the night sky
Dazzling the night away, showing people my true colors
I’m like the sun who sometimes come’s out and play
I am 11 pm who doesn’t care and wants to stay up late
I’m like fall, I loose my energy
I am a tiger, ferocious but me
I am crazy but beautiful at the same time
I am not that typical type
For all the things I have done, I look back and wonder why,
Why me
I am outrageous
I am gorgeous
Gorgeous enough to be me
