I Dont Want To Be Accepted

Everyone wants to be accepted
But not me 
I dont want to be accepted
to accept me for who I am is just putting up with me
I want my quirks and probloms to be the reason someone loves me
I want the fact that im a mess 
To be the venom that poisons you and still you want more
I want someone whos insatiable to the real me 
not someone who just accepts me

Wow! Jessica, I at times wake up like this and brag about it. But, i am sure none of us mean it. You have very striking words, and thoughts we all feel at times.. I say grrrrr to my man with the thought he only accepted me, but not the real me.. Enjoyed your poem,..LeeAnn
