I AM NOT PERFECT

its about who i am

Imelda is who i am by name
Growing up i found myself being called by that name
I laugh i cry i love
I can be happy and sad at the next minute
I am not perfect and i strive not to be
Atleast i know i am not fake
Sometimes i get lazy i happen to have good and bad days
I shut myself from the world just to feel alive
I know i am not the craiziest or m i always everyone"s favorite
But i try to fit where i fill welcomed
I become emo most of the time and sometimes soak my pillow all night
I pretend to be fine with a fake smile when inside m dying
I totally believe in friendship and i know some friends will forever be family
Poetry,soft rock music,inspirational words keeps me calm
I sure have my scars created by love,friendship and even parents
I do have dreams of a successful future which not everyone will appreciate
I have never been my parents favorite
Most of the time i am discrete because people never understands
They find me complicated and mi judge me
Growing up is not an easy path which i am walking on
Many are the times things go wrong and always wish like giving up
I hate disappointing people i love but sometimes i have to take care of me
I  make mistakes and i will never appologise for who i am
I am comfortable in my own skin

It is so awesome that you are able to write about yourself. Most of the times, I am too scared of revealing my inner self, you've totally done, and I can only salute you and give applause!

Thanks for sharing it!

A through and poetic description of a great writer. It is not always easy to write about yourself. It is difficult to put ourselves out there as a subject sometimes. We use pseudonyms and hide behind characters. You just talked about who you are. You did a great job!
