What I Want

I can't always be what people
want me to be
I can't always do what people
want me to do
I can't say what people
want me to say
And I can't always feel what people
want me to feel
I can only be
what I want to be
I can only do
what I want to do
I can only say
what I want to say
I can only feel
what i want to feel
Sometimes, I may not be
what I want to be
I may not do
what people want me to do
I may say things people
don't to hear
And I may express emotions
people don't want to see
However the expressions I show
on the outside
reflect the sorrow and pain
I feel on the inside.
All I want to be
is that everyone should let me be.
ALL I REALLY WANT IS TO BE ME
