hi guys!!!
I am back for a bit before my tea so as requested here is my rewrite of Grace Kelly! (if ppl dont know what I am on about look back a few pages I have explained there!)
The title is not final and I probably have a few touch ups to make to the poem but would love everyone's feedback on it!! So here it is...
Who do you think I am?
Who are you to state who I am,
or who I should be?
You try to make me conform to your ways,
to become someone I'm not!
I know who I am but you don't seem to understand this!
I am a unique person,
not a crowd follower.
Don't try to manipulate me,
because it won't work.
You think everyone will come in here,
and change themselves until you are happy,
Well I won't!
I know who I am and I'm sticking to it!!!
Nobody can label me
And that’s the way it’s going to be,
I won’t be your lump of clay
For you to model into your ideal image.
That’s not me!
I do things my way, on my terms,
Not on anybody else’s
And if you can’t accept that,
You know what you can do
You are no different from the rest
They all want to change me,
But they can’t, because I won’t let them,
And I won’t let you!
My identity is what makes me who I am
And without it, who am I?
So, what do u think? i am not sure on the ending yet, my other idea was to make it more general so that instead of My identity is what makes me who I am, it would be our identity makes us who we are. But I thought as this is quite a personal poem the ending should also be personal. But what do u guys think???
