My own.

You`re standing there
Staring at me
You don`t like who I am
So you tell me who to be

I can`t pretend
To be someone else
This is who I am
And only myself

You have to accept
Me as one
Try to be proud
Of what I`ve become

Don`t be ashamed
Please give me a chance
Look past my sorrows
And take one last glance

Look into my hazel eyes
And tell me you can`t see
A girl who needs your approval
To let that girl be me

No, don`t approve
Turn and walk away
Like you always do
Because I have one thing to say

You`re everything I hate
My sadness and depression
Yet you`re every bit apart of me
You are my own reflection

    One thing I love about all your poems (or at least those I have read so far) is the very last line...your closing lines always have such intensity and prominence from the poem and are used so cleverly. Beauty of a poem...keep writing!

    Great peice, very powerfully written. the ending is very good, nice little twist there which realy hits the reader well and was genuinely unexpected.

    5/5
