Don't Paint A Picture Of How I Am Supposed To Be.
I can only be one person; just me.
In your mind,
Am I supposed to be,
Tall,
Short,
Fat,
Thin,
Black,
White,
Equal,
Unequal,
Sad,
Happy,
Brainy,
Fashionable,
or,
Beautiful?
In your mind,
Am I supposed to be,
Well Behaved,
Compliant,
Submissive,
Polite,
Rude,
Moody,
Pleasant,
Soft,
Hard,
Sensitive,
Insensitive,
Perfect
Imperfect?
In my mind;
I can be all of those things,
It's called being human;
Without those traits,
I wouldn't be me.
Humans can be seen,
In photographs,
In paintings,
In Sketchings,
In Fiction,
In non-fiction,
And;
In real life.
In real life,
I am,
Real,
With feelings,
With emotions,
With quirks,
Imperfections,
My own personality.
Please, when you see me,
Don't paint a picture of,
How I am supposed to be;
For I am real,
I am not a painting,
Or a character,
Hung for all to see;
I can only be one person,
just me.
