As I Am

As I Am

A Poem by Michelle Lea
"

its just me

"

You no longer want me as I am___

so as I am I will just leave.

 

Well as I am...

I just wasn't good enough,

just couldn't quite make the cut.

When role call came,

he didn't even mention my name.

 

Who's to blame?

Was it his shame?

or maybe mine...

We could both just be blind.

 

Well I could just leave...

As I am___

There'd be no-one left to blame.

No more shame to claim.

And the blind would finally see again!

 

It's a miracle, yes it is...

As I Am

That was a real brave thing to do; Accepting the rejection in order to stay remain true to yourself. Nobody like any a*s-kissing, stuck-up, faker, and so on, but you knew better than that and you've just told yourself that you are better than that and you can do much better than that as well. I'd love to point the blame and such, but it'd be a waste of time to do it so...

Anyway, it's a pretty interesting piece on how you've expressed yourself as you're standing still to stay the way you're happy to be at, so it's all really great tho. Also, I'm rooting from the bench, because you just got yourself another fanboy lol Stay true...

Loved it! It shows your strength. I know the pressure when someone we care for says we're not good enough for them, we want to change for them, but that's not what loves' about. It's about accepting us for who we are. Way to go, girl!

I love this poem and to read it twice just to get the full meanig of it. I think you captured the feeling of being rejected without being mad about it brillantly. I give this poem a thumbs up!

Someone being rejected, and wanting to leave for no one to blame.

Amazing! This was a great poem. I thought that your moral for this poem was very creative. It's a miracle, yes it is... as I am. Brilliant! Keep writing! XD

Your amazing! That poem has feeling meaning and gives the message that most people won't change when you want them to!
