Only Me

Look into my eyes. Then look further, into my soul. You can see I wear no disguise. You also see, life has taken its toll. I can only be who I am right now. I am through trying to be someone else. Ask me to change, I will not ask you how. I am, and I will always be myself. This is something you must understand. All that I am is what I choose to be. There is nothing more, for you to demand. So look closely, for this is the only me.

Well put Sandra. Never change for anyone. If they try telling you different then they are not your friend. Thanks for sharing this

Thank you Gregory. I have learned that we must be true to our authentic selves. If not I think we would eventually regret it. Congrats, #1 new poet on PS!
