You cannot expect me to be a disciple of the cruel and the dangerous, the follower of those who choke the life, or the sibling of one who hates the world. You cannot force a gallon of sarcasm down my throat and allow it to drip off my words. You cannot put a collar around my neck and lead me towards my own end on a leash. However. Please do not force me to walk on a tightrope shaped like a flawless arrow. I can't balance so well, so dont blame me when i let one foot step off to the side I'll have the same destination but i can't say that i wont have any scars from the trip.

You can bet that 10 years from now, that you will not find me wearing a pink apron with a steaming pie in my hands. You can bet that i'll never be a picture of a perfect suburbian wife and mother right out of a 1950's magazine. But you can bet that you'll find me with my family, still wobbling on that tightrope and having to step off of it. You knew all along that conforming was never my forte. ANd you'll smile and say to me, "taylor you haven't changed a bit"
i'm going to be successful, and a good mother, and wife one day. im going to have a good life- but you can't expect that i'll be one right out of a magazine like i said.

Years from now, i'll still be eccentric and fun and everything i am now, except i'll be an adult, ya know?

what im saying is, you can't expect to make me something im not. because i know who i am, and thats exactly who i'll be.
