The Shapeshifter
I am criticized
I feel hurt
So I change myself
I am criticized the next day
I feel hurt
So I change myself again
I am criticized the following day
I feel hurt
.
.
.
But no matter how hard I try
I can't change myself
So I hide inside
Become shy
Withdraw from reality
Feel shame in the public eye
And fervently deny myself
My hummanity
Will there come a day
Where no one hurts me
When I don't need to change for anyone
And my will is my own?
Is acceptance that great?
