Poem:I am Me

I am Me

I'm alone. By myself
I can feel it closing in
I must do something
Something to distract me

I don't want to bother friends
But I need someone
Someone to accept me
Accept me as I am, the real person

Not try to change me
Leave me as I am
Love me as I am
But I'm a hard person to love

I am difficult at times
But still I have an inner child
I stand my ground
But will listen

I want acceptance
I want to accept
I will not change
Don't expect me too

I am me
