This is a poem about who I am and what everyone else judges me by
I'm not as bitter as some wish I was

I'm less of a cynic now just because

I'm making a change from my head to my toes

I'm sick of people telling me how my story goes

So let me paint you a picture of the girl that is me

Not the girl everyone else wants me to be

I'm just a white girl, born and raise

Workin' not playin' most of these days

People don't really think that i'm mean

but really I'm not half as nice as i seem

I'll never be skinny or todays standard of 'hot'

but I'm ok with people thinking I'm not

someone once called me a four out of ten

It doesn't hurt now and it didn't hurt then

I know what I want to do with my life

But I've had my fair share of toils and strife

Lies and addiction hide in my past

abandoned with hopes which faded fast

yet I don't hold it agaisnt them, i love them the same

Its just the bond of the family name

People don't like me and call me mean things

but being a 'backstabbing bitch' isn't as bad as it seems

I've divded my friends, the real from the fake

looking back now I call many a "mistake"

Yet I am happier then most people I know

Mostly I'm laid back and go with the flow

So don't judge me on what people say

I'm just this girl day after day
