Paragon

I've never liked role models. I don't like people, or those who tell me how to be, or what to do. Honestly, I'm me, not you. "Be a role model, you've got to!" So I set myself as an example, of what not to do. Found myself becoming, a goal that you shouldn't pursue. Tattoos, torn shoes, and a couple loose screws. I might not be much to aspire to, but I don't regret it, there's nothing I'd undo.

I don't want a personal hero, nor do I want to be one. I'm me, I'd like to try to be more like me, not others.
