all the demands, pressure and expectations are far too high for someone so small to grasp. 

Reaching so deperately to something I canning clasp. 

 

Would you you care if I gave up and walked away from my dreams?

because surely they’re more yours than mine, that’s how it seems. 

 

If if I just stopped longing for acceptance and decided to ‘do me’. 

Would you force me to continue with what I worked so hard or would you just let me be?

 

The questions are endless along with your requests. 

Because I feel you care more about my life and continue to obsess. 

 

So if you lowered your expectations and allowed me to pursue,

then I could be happy and maybe make you proud too.
