I want people to accept me for me.
Not thinking of me as a linear tree,
But with branches touching internally,
Eternally I like everyone I meet.
Eventually being the person you want me to be.
Why do you hate me?
You've never said that but you treat me differently.
Than everyone else... everyone else likes the person I am.
I'm self aware, that I am somewhat of an annoyance.
My head barely breathing I'm trying to find buoyance.
You don't know I feel this way all the pain all absorbance
I just wanted one thing from you and that is not annoyance
I want your acceptance.
