Teenage Angst on Vanity

I am me and only me
to live my life
the way I see right.
Not to live by the standards
that you make,
but to find my own way.

For I see who I want to be,
and who you are,
weak and ifluenced by
the non-essential materials of life,
will not make my eye wander
in an attempt to see
what I could be,
but rather makes me realize
what I do not want to become.

So when you stand infront of me
to flaunt your new scene,
please realize:
I will not shudder
or cower back in awe,
for what I see,
another new you
attempting to make a new me,
will not change who I want to be.
