I’m Not Perfect

by Sanjana A.

I’m not you
I make mistakes
I’m no good and that’s ok
I wish you would believe in me
When will you see the way I see
I am not a puppet that you can control
I am not a piece of clay that you can mold
I tried hard to impress and now I’ve given up
I don’t care what you say I’m better by myself
I’m not always right
I’m only human
I tried a million times
I’m not perfect
I’m not perfect
Stop yelling at me why can’t you see I’m not like you
Why should I change to be someone else I don’t have to
I’m not you
I make mistakes
I’m no good and that’s ok
I wish you would believe in me
When will you see the way I see
I am not a puppet that you can control
I am not a piece of clay that you can mold
I tried hard to impress and now I’ve given up
I don’t care what you say I’m better by myself
I’m not always right
I’m only human
I tried a million times
I’m not perfect
I’m not perfect
