Me Is All I Really Need to Be

You are beautiful.

By Spencer Marie-Inez SheltonPublished 9 years ago • 1 min read

When I was quite little my daddy told me not to be one of those girls

I was young so I didn't really understand

I thought being one of those girls would be profound you see

They always got the guys

And it was always just me

People laughed with them not at them

When I was quite little my daddy told me not to be one of those girls

Was it just me or were they really pretty

Now that I'm older I think I understand

It's never too late for me

Being one of those girls isn't quite profound you see

I'm me and that's really all I need to be

And if people laugh at me then so be because I'm me and me is really all I need to be

It’s about finding yourself and understanding you are enough.
