I'Ll Never Let You Get To Me Poem by Stephen Denny Paul White

No, I don't care for what you think
I'm not self-conscious every blink
And no, I don't care what you say
I'll live and then die anyway

Who cares at all how people judge?
You never will please everyone
In someone's eyes, you make mistakes
But those are risks we have to take

Why waste my only chance to live
With pointless, petty things like this
Say what you wish, your words will sting
But in the end they mean nothing

No cuts will show upon my wrists
- No tears fall down my cheek
You won't succeed, you won't prevail
I'll never let you get to me
