I'm just me

By Bloodofdeadpoets

People don’t understand when I say I’m just me

They try to look deeper digging to see what they can see

I am very simple with my own complexity within

But I guess in this world individuality is a mortal sin

Because people always need someone to compare you to

And just to find a comparison they tear deep into you

They think that everyone has to have their way of life

Like every individual has to have their problems their strife

So when they peer into me to see what they can see

Instead of a long complex answer I tell them I’m just me
