its all on a page for you to read. my life as it is and everthig that you don't see. a line in the sand and a tear on my face, i know that i will know find my own way. its here and its now standing outside my house. how can this be, is this really me? or am i just what you expect me to be. i'm not your puppet you are not the boss of me. i am my own author to the book of my life. You cannot change me to what you expect me to be.

The author's comments:
all of my life i have been told how to act and who to be, when i write its like i can just let go and be my true self inside out. no ones there to critize what i write its just me. i can't run from myself when i write, its just me starring at all my problems and wrtitting helps me fix them. this piece is about not giving in to everything people tell you to be. its about being your true self
