What I would like to say to everyone with an opinion about my personality.

I am not you and you are not me.
Even if the truth is something you can't see
You know its the truth so just agree.
Now leave me alone and let me be.

I am my own person.
If I were you it would all worsen.
With my emotion always bursting
Without pain I would still be hurting.

You need to become a witness
To how your own life is a mess
And how becoming you would make me less
Bringing to me fear and too much stress.

I don't want to be on the run.
Just because I don't want to be like everyone.
No, I don't need a reason.
No, it won't make me a heathen.

I just wanted to know if you could help.
I was hurt by the cards others had dealt.
Instead of helping me with what I had felt
I got a lesson on how to change myself.

I am someone you can not change.
Because I already have my own way.
You're standing here in delay.
I already told you to go away.
