The Real Me

My head is full of curls, 

just like my world can be a whirl

there's so much left to unfurl 

so I must overcome the perils. 

I can't be who they want me to be 

all I want is for them to see the real me. 

Like water without going through a filter, 

my life has no kilter. 

But for those who see the qualities in me,

they will know that I have humility 

and the ability to improve humanity.
