You’ll never make me one of you
My heart will always beat different
My eyes will always be dark
My heart will always be pure
My hair will always reflect my mood
I can never be you
You can place me in your clothes
Turn me into a puppet
Moving at your every whim
Flirting with who you close
Being who you chose
You’ll never make me you
This mould you try and fit me in
Brakes at the sight of me
You can’t change me
Because I am who im made to be
We are all made different in this world
Each of us is unique
Keep your pretty handcuffs
Chose a new slave
I will never be who you want me to be
That’s ok because in myself
Im fine with that
Im simply me
And theirs no one else
Who can take my place
You’ll never make me one of you

Good way of describing why you want to be you..not a slave to live for someone else. But why you say my eyes will always be dark...

Wonderful
A very creative poem. So very well done. Best of luck in the contest.

well written. i particularly like the line "keep your pretty handcuffs." you are resolute in not conforming for the sake of conforming- not suppressing who you are, and kudos for that.

This mould you try and fit me in
Brakes at the sight of me
You can’t change me
Because I am who im made to be
We are all made different in this world
Each of us is unique
