Those People Talking About Me

You Haven't Yet Got The Best Of Me.

Yes;

I'm not perfect,

I am loud,

I am soft,

I am messy,

I get worked up easily,

I'm perfectly rounded,

But don't you dare say I'm fat!

I'm extremely friendly,

I am too pretty,

Yes, I flirt a lot with men and women

but I can accept my sexuality.

I am happy,

But, yet you people,

Talking so loud;

Spreading your rumours,

And your evil spite.

I will shut my ears,

to the things you say,

Because I don't care about

Your foul mouths.

While you're talking,

Your words are damaging,

Not to me, but to you.

To those people talking;

You haven't yet got the best of me.
