ME for me

all this time

I defined myself

by how much u liked me.

I smiled differently

acted childish,

stayed true to this image you had formed of me,

never really admitting that I liked you.

but then something happened,

almost like a wave crashing into the coast

unexpected and wild

I felt that it didn't matter,

maybe I didn't matter.

because for those two weeks when u evaded my eyes,

when u didn't talk or say hi,

even though I had changed myself so much!

I felt the urge to scream, "notice me!! I am here!!"

"I am in love with you!!"

but it didn't matter, cause my ego had the better of me.

I never asked what happened, I never showed i cared.

i evaded my eyes too, so we drifted.

i cut my hair, bangs, i wanted to try 'different'

maybe because i wanted them like that?

maybe because i wanted you to know,

that your image of me doesn't matter anymore.

i am free

i am living and loving

i am ME.
