Like a Chameleon

if you judge me by my physical LOOK you would say I'm full PRETENCE but if I gave you a chance to read my Journal BOOK you'd realize am just full of PRUDENCE. Don't mind me, I live my life like a FAIRYTALE an excuse of a story to TELL Yes, I prefer to live like a CHAMELEON hated and despised by MANY knowing that life won't stop, it always will MOVE ON as I keep loving my PERSONALITY Sorry, I do not mean to be RUDE but that's just who I AM some say am full of boasting and PRIDE well, what can I do, when I just try to be better than I AM Some condemn the way I WALK and most laugh that I am too SLOW but I do not mind their laughter and TALK cause I have my own laws to FOLLOW to speak honestly and FRANKLY am mostly found ALONE cause most of the friends I have are not FRIENDLY they are always weighing me DOWN Get away from me if you're a PRETENDER I want to be ALONE don't force me to change my COLOUR Just like a CHAMELEON

I like this poem. It really spoke to me because I also don’t like to pretend to be someone I’m not.

Thanks for sharing this. Welcome to Poetry Soup. Meanwhile, I welcome you with God's love, expressed in John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." God bless you.
