I Just Want to Be Me,


I'm cut down day by day, told this and that. Never have my parents say "I'm proud of you". Always hear them say "Do what's practical". I don't care if what I want is practical ro not I just want to be me. I'm betrayed by many, but stuck true to all. No matter what I do I'm never good enough I just want to be me. Never want to be close to anyone 'cause they all leave. I have a huge past, but try not to let it control me and I always fail. I'm truly unhappy, but no one knows because the sad fact is I'm a great actress.
