 A New Woman

I MISS MY OLD SELF

Clothes have labels
Difference between them and a human is
They're only one name
So many judges yet so little open minds
So much ignorance is beyond belief
They can't see someone only had a laugh
I stuck a label on myself forever
Its not really who i am I was being myself just a complete utter goofball
If clothes were labeled GOOFBALL it doesn't seem to be favored among the A listers Gucci, Gap, Henley's, Armani, G-Star Or even Guess
I am A really kind hearted and sweet down to earth person with just a little bit of a wild side
I guess i married wrong the first time He had to be an adrenaline Junkie so i wouldn't do silly petty things
I am a good person and i am not stupid its just sometimes common sense ain't up my street
I am labeled people think i am just some petty goofball who they can take advantage of
When i am not around they need me and try to butter me up
Sometimes i do a favor or two, but then i think its not worth making my reputation look worse than it already is
They really think i am unaware of what they are doing, but i am fully aware, but just too tired to fight everyone
I am a lover and not a fighter
At times i wished i never changed and stayed Tough and strong how i used to be
I was still the same kind hearted person who stood her ground when necessary
The eyes met mine and dared to damn mess with me
I was the girl they were afraid to cross
I was also quite, innocent, unlabeled and sweet
Always had my nose in a book, the TV or homework or the computer or deep in my poetry
I wish i accepted i was OK to be that girl and that i never changed Coz i hate this girl i have become
I hate her she isn't me She is awful i wish i never met her
I am getting myself back that even if i am labeled forever I shouldn't care and i am not going to care
I am going to act tough and be the girl they don't cross
I am going to get my nose in my dusty books i loved so much and go back to being who i was
I never thought I'd miss my old self but i really do
Welcome back sunshine   you won't be sweet and innocent any longer, but its what others see, but i know exactly what i am and what i am not
