I am as I am

Beauty is not pain but pain is beautyย
Because you shouldn't have to hurt to be societally beautiful,
you are as you are.ย
But when you are in pain remember,
you ARE beautiful.ย
Because what does society know?ย
Society changes its mindย every dayย & saysย
"I'll invite her out to play, so I can tell her who she needs to be
& tell her what to do to look pretty,ย
whether it's wavy brows or having cures,ย
I'll make her hate herself so much she'll wish she wasn't on this earth.ย
And when society sees a guy here's what it'll do,
It'll say "Hey! you cannot have emotion,
the only things you can have a devotion to
is having a dirty mind & playing with girls hearts & playing with them so much they fall apart.
Oh! & another thing!ย
the only way you can be sensitive is if you are a queer
"he must be gay, he's so sincere" "ย ย
Hear yourself society!ย
What do you want?!?!
Cause I'm tired of the relentless taunts of
people calling me a buzzkill cause I like to read,
what should I say society?ย
"I'm sorry for being me?"
Well no I won't say that I am as I am.
I don't believe in society cause society's a sham.ย
So what if I'm a dreamer?!?
even if they don't come true,ย
at least I can say I didn't listen to you,
when you tried to bring me down day by day
& tell me who I can be so I can be great.ย
I am a beautiful person, my God tells me so,
he made just like this & you reap what you sow.ย
So NO!ย
You cannot shape me to fit your mold,ย
I am as I am, there is no product to be sold!
With that being said...
Be sensitive.
Be bold.
Be crazy.ย
Be brave.ย
Be different.
Be weird.ย
Be Shy.ย
Simply do... just be you.ย
Be anything you want but DO NOT be told.
No not by society, not in the least,
you are as you are & that is beauty.
I love you as you are and so does my God,
I may be quicker to judge but I am only human & my judgments are often wrong.ย
And as a human, I have made observations, let me make a reservation for your attention and your time.ย
Listen up.ย
Through our own pain, we often do not see our own beauty,
too blinded by society to notice that you are in fact quite
the cutie.ย
Say it "I am as I am"
Accept that you are as you areย
& be proud of it.ย
I mean don't become so cocky that you become a brat,
If you're okay with who you are, stay where you're at.
Now if you are to forget the poem and move on with your life,ย
remember the 5 words that will make it alright...
"I am as I am"ย
