Imperfect

Why does everyone I know seem to point out my flaws.
I know I'm not perfect,
I'm far from it.

But you tell me to stop being me,
like it's something I can change.

Whether your a friend or a stranger,
it hurts when you point out my imperfections,
as if you have none yourself.

I already hurt myself,
I already felt like shit,
I already know how I look
I already know how I act.

Your opinions and accusations can be false...
but I'd still believe them.
because everything your saying is everything I've been trying to ignore,
everything I try to run from,
everything that's stopping me from
getting better

So please stop
I'm already hurting myself enough.
