Being True

Sometimes the hardest person to be is yourself.
I have changed my hair, my address, and my name to gain the love of others. I have deferred my own dreams so others may pursue their own. All my life, I have wanted to be four things; a wife, a writer, a mother and a teacher. I have compromised and sold out my soul to make each one come true. A mirror reflecting what others want to see, what they want to believe.
Now, my mirror days are over.  I need to reflect my own vision, no matter what the consequences to my GPA or to my heart.
 
It's my life after all.
