I am who I am

Don’t transform me into someone else. Don’t even try.

I cut my hair the way I think is classy and apply make up I think is perfect.
I dress what is comfortable and what I think is decent.
I put on fragrance I love to smell and not succumb to allergenic scents.
I cut my nails with my own design and wear accessories I think is elegant.
So don’t be surprised if I choose my own clothes, my shampoos, my cosmetics and accessories without even consulting you. This is how I adorn my outer shell and this is how I always will.

I eat the food I like best, irregardless of your alternatives.
I go to places I feel like and will stay there as long as I desire.
I choose the people I would talk to and treasure those I pick.
I look up to people whom I think deserving and will stoop down to those too low.
I gesture the moves which come out of me and will articulate words I am most at ease.
I do things the best way I suppose I should, even if it means setting both of us aside.
I let you know all these things so you don’t have to be surprised.

I read the book I have interest in; I watch the movies I like
I dance the music I enjoy; I sing the song I love
I toil for the job I want and will continue until the passion wears out.
I submit myself to promises I believe and will give away only those I can fulfill.
I do the things I think is right, whether they please you or not.

So this is who I am and what you see is what you get.
And once again, I articulate the words I am most at ease, under which is this case.

So don’t tell me what to do and don’t try to change me.
Just let me be myself coz that’s what it takes to see the real me.
Should you see a transition of a different me, it is then that you have to leap in.

Now one last thing before I end this trivia,
I can only give away promises which I know I can fulfill.
And the promises I gave you are never an exemption.
So take them and believe in them because I do keep them.
Don’t go wasting them, no… Don’t even try.
