The Ballad Of Life As We Know It

I am what I am, so don't try to change me
I'll do what I'll do, so don't try to tame me.
I'll love who I'll love and hate what I'll hate,
No one can touch this unstoppable fate.

Don't tell me what I can do or say,
I'll turn around and say 'it'll just happen anyway'
You can't tame the wind nor black out the sun,
And one day you'll realize that I was the one.

I'll be the change you'll see in the world,
I'll be the same girl, you'll be in a whirl.
I'll do what I want and I'll be who I'll be,
Don't try and change me, just watch me and see.

Life is too short to be running around,
All that you'll find is it's bringing you down
Don't live with regrets, you'll just lose in the end,
Don't live a life too broken to mend

I am what I am, so don't try to change me,
I'll be who'll I'll be, don't try and tame me, just watch me and see.
You won't understand all the love or the hate,
Still you can't touch my unstoppable fate.

Okay, this is a poem I wrote a couple of months ago after my best friend died, and my literature teacher has been helping me edit it; I thought it might finally be time to share!
