ITS NOT ME

IT'S NOT ME

It's not  how I look at life that disturbs me,
It's not how people treat me either,
It's not what I expected or wanted,
It's not how I thought things would be,
It's not what I wanted in life, Where I wanted to be,
Who I wanted to be, What you or I needed to be,
It's not that I couldn't or wouldn't, That the expectations
were to high,
It's not where I wanted to stay, Here, Now,
It's just not who I am,
It's not .............ME.

I like your stuff, it's honest. Keep writing, I'll keep reading. -Much Peace

In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.

Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
