I Can'T Be Sorry Poem by Amy Stuart

I'm done being the girl
Who sits in the back of the room
The one who seems boring
Because that's what people assume

I'm done trying to make you like me
And truthfully I'm glad you said no
Because I'm really happy
And it's easier to let go

I'm done being the girl
Who people try to change
Because they want me to break out of my shell
Because my life is something they want to rearrange

I'm done with being the girl
everyone wants me to be
I'm not going to change for you
I can't be sorry for being me
