I am not her,
I have never been she,
never called the
it-girl!
I am not the Grandmother I resemble,
nor the aunt that tries to
improve me.
I have not been beaten so bad that I haven't gotten back up
for seconds.
I have never been so self-absorbed to pass by someone in
need.
I have never been
rich nor have I been poor...
for I always have my heart my soul and love.
I have never abandoned a friend or usurped an opportunity
that was not mine by rights.
I don't let lies and deceit stand as fact or belief,
I would
rather trust and be a fool than become jaded and hurt a heart.
I don't allow others to be hurt in front of me and let my
voice rust in my throat.
I will not jump with the crowd and be part of the flock.
I may not be the one,
who shines the stars or Hung the Moon,
but I am who I am and that is enough for me!
