My apologies

by keyah021

I apologize that you don't like me. I apologize that you don't understand me. I apologize that you never got to know the real me. I will not apologize for being me. I will not apologize for having a dream. I will not apologize for having an imagination. I will not apologize for growing with love and joy. I may be naive, stubborn, ignorant, an idiot and everything else you can say. But I will not apologize because GOD made me this way.
