It's not me trying to pick a fight
It's not me trying to be weird
It's a battle with myself
While the world's against me...
I push so hard... not to make a point
But a statement that I'm me
This might look like a mistake to others
But they aren't me
This battle will never end
The walls that fall on me will never stop
I live with knowing an obstacle is up ahead
But there are obstacles everywhere in life
You just have to hurtle over them
So this battle is my very own battle
And I'm proud
Not like any normal battle
This is an ongoing battle for my very own independence

I enjoyed this...I think you should enter this into my Cool, Independent, Badass Women contest, because it would do fairly well there. I think you worded this well, it had nice flow and I LOVE the meaning behind it, too.
Keep up the good work, Ariel, and I look forward to reading more of your stuff!
