You never understand me,

I doubt you even could

You assume my life fits in a box

All neat and pushed away

Well, as amazing as it will be,

You were wrong

My life is not simple,

Nor with clear-cut edges

You say you want the best for me

I say you need to let me live my life

You push me to be THE best,

Instead push me to be MY best

I know these concepts are foreign

You only copy what was done to you

But here comes my suggestion

Listen, hear and watch

Pipe up when asked or needed

And never, ever forget

I love you
