*I Am Who I Am*

Why is it that I never know what I want
and when I finally do
I'm always just a day late
you're gone with a piece of me with you

Some people say I'm stubborn
but they don't know how I feel
I think what I want and I am who I am
you can't change me so deal

You spend all your time
trying to turn me into you
When I can't just change
I can only feel the way I know how to

I'm sensitive and I worry
I analyze and I smile to much
I need to be held, yet sometimes
I cringe by your touch

I can't explain how I am
but if you cant except me
Then so sorry for you
It obviously wasn't meant to be

¤Sometimes the hardest thing to get over, is something you never really had¤

Well geesh I guess you are going through some problems.......Acire's long time rival is really getting to you!!
I know acire will be there for you, and so will us, the people of PIP.
Hope you get better.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

Hey, this piece kind of contradicts your other. In this one, you seem a bit more proud and esteemed than you do in the other.
These poems compliment one another nicely... you obviously are feeling quite a bit.
Keep your head high, Kiley.

I think it's important to the message that these two poems are read together, so I'll try to keep this where the other is.
Beautiful poem, I might add!

I couldn't help but think of that song after reading your title. I always liked those lyrics for what they are saying, and that stands true for this poem too. I think you expressed a good attitude here.
