IM NOT THEM


To be what I want to be is hard. To be what they want me to be is harder. To follow behind others and never be myself, thats somthing I have done for years. But I refuse to do that anymore. I decide to be myself. The self that i am destined to be, The me that i will be. I will live my life and be happy. I will know what its like to never regret anything. I will not be the follower I used to be, But a self loving person in control of her life. I will not be you. I will not be them. I will not be anyone else. I will be me.
