I Could...

by LonelyNightsHurt   Dec 4, 2005


I can try so hard,
I can be who you want me to be
I can smile without a tear in my eye
And no one would be able to see

I could be so perfect
So loyal and so true
But in the end I wouldn't have
Any true love from you

I could act so dainty
I could be the perfect child
But then deep down under
My insides would be running wild

I could love who you wanted
Be with the guys of YOUR dreams
And still, you wouldn't know
That nothing is ever as it seems

I could be the perfect wife
And do the things wives should do
I could cook and clean
And have a boy and a girl, just the two

But in the end, I am just me
Not perfect in the least
I do not want to be the perfect wife
And I want my beauty in the beast

I want to be true to myself
Not to have to cry myself to sleep
Not to have to cut myself
To be loud and to not creep

I know what I truly want
But why wont this ever satisfy you?
I am going to be myself
So long as to myself I am forever true

PLease vote and comment, would be appreciated
