MYSELF


What would you change?

I would change myself, honestly.

I would change my insecurities.

I would honestly change my big heart.

I'm the sweetest and most caring person you'll ever meet

yet I'm constantly being taken for granted,

mistreated,

and misunderstood.

Yet, I forgive with all my heat

and I love hard and deeply.

I give chance after chance without

you working for it 

Yet, I'm still taken for granted.

I want to change my forgiving ways but then I don't

What I REALLY need to change is letting others affect me

My big heart and forgiving ways is what makes me who I am.

And I need to remain myself and learn from the obstacles of life.

I wouldn't change anything about myself because everything I go through makes me

a better me.
