i may worry. and i may over analyze.
and i may be contradictory and indecisive.
i may never be right. and i might always be wrong.
i may be too honest. i might always embellish.
but at least you know who i am.
at least i know who i am.
i don't tell you i want to change when i have no intention of trying.
i know i don't want to change.
as of now, this is who i am.
i don't think i'm someone i'm not.
i don't pat myself on the back.
i don't settle.
i no longer play pretend friend. you're no longer in my life for a reason.
i no longer carry on superficial conversation.
i won't agree with you because it's appropriate.
i will no longer be part of a shallow life.
or believe shallow things because that's how i was raised.
or because that's what you believe.
i will not silence myself to please you.
don't silence me to please yourself.
i will always agree to disagree and you were always in my life for a reason.
but i've grown.
my heart has grown.
my morals, beliefs, values and everything synonymous with these have grown.
i now have a mind of my own.
filled with conclusions i have drawn on my own.
a man is only as good as his word.
and if you live your life by saying one thing and doing the opposite,
then count me out.
if you believe naive things because that's what you were taught,
then count me out.
and stop rolling your eyes when we talk about issues that mean something to me.
stop calling me weird.
stop judging me.
maybe if you opened your heart
you'll find my values somewhat comprehensible.
