I Just Want To Be Me

[Guest ashleynikole]

I just want to put my hair up in a ponytail.
I don’t want to wait for it to grow.

I just want my body to be hair free.
I don’t want to have to shave all the time.

I just want to put on my t-shirt, my shorts, my sandals.
I don’t want to have to wear breast forms and tuck.

I don’t want to be fake.

I don’t want to wear a wig, I just want to be me.

I don’t want to put on makeup, I just want to be me.

I want everyone to see the outside like I see it inside.

I just want to be me.

I just want to be me.

Hi AshleyNikole,

That is all I want, too. All I've ever wanted. Your poem speaks for so many of us.

Thanks girls.

It's how I felt most yesterday when I was thinking forward to having to get ready to go out to be with friends. It was also hard as I'm back to dealing with losing my wife and kids as a family unit so the depression made it that much harder.

I know we all live it at some point so I thought I would put into words what I really feel inside. I posted it on my blog and I've never had so many likes from any blog post.

Thanks for the love and here's to the journey of never having to feel fake again.

I like it Ashley. And it's the cry of my heart as well. Some day. Some day, I will be free; I will be me.

And so will you. :-)

Peace this day.

You are you

That is true

Do not go on feeling blue

You are you

what you do

Is really just up to you

You are you

Can't you see

That you can be what you see

You are you

So be proud

Another girl say it loud

You are you

All inside

you don't have to ever hide

You are you

Look above

Look inside and you'll know love
