I tend to dream big dreams,
Though I know they won't come true.
Sometimes I say things that I shouldn't,
Before I've thought them through.
I try to act like things don't hurt,
When they're really killing me inside.
I couldn't tell you how many nights,
I've laid awake and cried.
I once loved someone with all my heart,
I really hope he knows...
I meant it when I said I loved him,
So I'm having a hard time letting go.
I had a baby way before I was ready,
But I wouldn't give her back for the world.
No matter how big she thinks she's getting,
She'll always be my baby girl.
All I need in life is a shoulder to cry on,
When things get tough and I get down
And someone that can make me smile
When all I really want to do is frown.
Sometimes I feel like giving up,
And I wish I could drink my life away.
I don't show what I'm really feeling inside...
I can only pray I'll be okay.
Somedays the weight on my shoulders,
Becomes just too much to bear.
But I'm sure someday I'll catch a break,
In a world where nothing seems to be fair.
My hair never sits the way I want it to,
I'm not always happy with myself.
Somedays I sit and wish so hard,
That I could be someone else.
I'm not the smartest or the prettiest,
I'm not perfect...I never will be.
But like it or not I'll never change,
I'm best at being me.

I have no idea if this is even remotely close to what you're looking for...I've had like serious writers block for months and I can't get over it...

I liked how you portrayed who you are. I loved how it showed the struggles you go through as a human but how it ended in a positive note. "But like it or not I'll never change,
I'm best at being me."
Excellent rhyme by the way
And thank you for your kind words on my poem. Im glad you liked it.
