The Person I Don't Want To Be

She waits impatiently—

The cynic

The person I don’t want to be

She laughs it off—

The liar

The person I don’t want to see

She doesn’t trust—

The doubtful

The person who fights to be free

She knows it all—

The arrogant

The person with unwavering need

She has no faith—

The godless

The person with no creed

She criticizes herself—

The self-hater

The person who no longer heeds

She’s so angry—

The furious

The person who never pleads

I’m becoming her—

My grandmother

The person I never wanted to be.
