I think i try too hard.
Try to be the best at everything
Instead of being the best of me..
Maybe if i didnt try so hard
i could actually get a boy who
cares about me and that i care
about and who drives me wild.
[&&] actually keep him.
Maybe putting in an effort is
what makes me different from other girls
but...is different good?
In this case where the girls who
arent very different get everything,
is being different good?
The girls who are naturally pretty,
have long natural pretty hair,
who dont wear anything too sparkly
but wear just pants and t-shirts,
they dont put much effort into
getting ready or impressing, cuz they
dont have to, they arent very different,
and yet they get the world,
is being different good?
If i stopped putting in an effort
and trying so hard, can i finally get
the attention and happiness they get?
But isnt that going entirely against
my standards of being unique and
expressing oneself through style?
Is not the body a blank canvas
waiting to be colored and filled in
with a sense of one's individuality?
If people cant appreciate my individuality,
my expression through coloring and filling
in my blank canvas, then are they truly worthy
of my time and effort?
Yes not putting in an effort would make life
easier...but isnt life suppose to be difficult?
conflict in life makes you stronger, helps
you know your alive. So maybe through putting
in an effort i am making myself stronger
rather than those who roll out of bed and bask
in what little glory they have that will last
for merely a short period. No great artist was appreciated
at first, sometimes not even later in life, but
sometimes when people's minds matured they recieved
the recognition they deserved instead of stealing
it. I will be that artist, with my blank canvas,
that for now struggles and cant make their impact
but later, becoming stronger through conflict
and difficulties, will achieve glory.
or at least recognition and appreciation from a guy.
opinions anyone?
