DarkLady's blog: "What About It ;)"

Let's see... how does this go again,
I gripe, I bitch,
I whine, I moan and groan
I have my good days, my bad days
My up days, my down days
And oh yes I do talk about them
But then again we all do
I am just me
A nobody in a great big world
So who else did you expect me to be
If I lie, pretend to be
No matter how hard I work
At a game to play
I can really only be me
Through it all
That's all I'll see
So who else did you expect me to be
Maybe the next time
You approach me expecting
something of me
Developed within your own mind
When you decide
To judge me
Based on your expectations
Remember
I am just me
A nobody in a great big world
Who else did you expect me to be 

I know who I am
And I know why
The paths I've taken
The choices I've made
The Life I've lived
I have no excuses
Only explanations
I've seen things
I've never wanted to see
I've known things
I was better off not knowing
No guided paths
Spur of the moment changes
Decisions denied thought
Confused, lost
Fighting my way through
I made it
Tattered and torn
Standing on my own
I know who I am
And I know why
