I'M Sorry

I’m sorry I’m not who you think I am. I’m no valedictorian; I’m just mere spam, Only there to be of annoyance. I’m sorry I don’t do what is expected. I don’t always think things through, I often need to be corrected, Whether through scolding or consequences. I’m sorry I’m not the daughter you desired, Well-behaved, top grades, and always obedient. But I am who I am, always inspired To be creative and innovative. I realize now being sorry isn’t right. It’s who I am, not something that can be changed. Instead of schoolwork, I like to write. Nothing I try can change that. You may not approve of what I do, But I am still your daughter, Through and through. Accept me for me.
