Who am I ?


To be is not who I want to be It is instead expected of me to be Is not what I want to be? For I want to be what I cannot be Without the disappointment of what is expected of me For I have to be what is not me When I always have to be what society expected of me to be Instead of whom I truly want to be I am to be who I want to be Despite what society expects me to be Instead of being me For now I shall be What I have to be ME.
