The girl I want to be
The girl I want to be. Why must I not be her? Can’t I succeed in the strength of being here. The struggle I go through to try to be like her. How do I be like her? She perfect while I’m a nuisance compared to her greatness. My awards are nothing to her success. My life is nothing compare to hers. Why can’t I be like her? “Don’t worry young child she wants to be like you, said an old lady.” She says, “why can’t I look like her? She so beautiful and graceful. She gets so many awards and her intelligence is so unbelievable. I feel like I can’t even be compared to her eminence. Why can’t I just be her?” Old lady says, ” why be each other when you can be the amazing girls. You girls are the most incredible, intelligent, and delightful people I have ever meet. Be yourselves because no one can take the place of an original, unique person”
