Me

Why don't you open your eyes? Actually LOOK at me? Don't you dare close them Keep them open wide What do you see? Surely you don't KNOW me, if you can't SEE me. Perfection's not me. Not even close Your perception's have proven false. Perfection's not me. Don't listen to rumors, lies, or gossip. They don't know me. Lying's NOT me. I don't play sports. Sporty I am NOT. I'm not as skinny as society demands to be. Hello? Over here? Super-model is NOT me. Do you WANT to know who I be? I'm an artist. A writer. Yes, that's right That's ALL ME
