Reality Isn't What You See ~Poem~

This is another poem I made out of mixed feeling I have that I never could seem to explain understandabley. Compliments offend me and insults flatter me. I much rather live above standards then below. This poem expresses my problems I always have when I try a relationship.

Reality Isn't What You See
Well this certainly isn't
An arguement I thought there'd be
You shower me with compliments
But it's like you don't see me

I'm not your little model
I'm not your little porn star
I am a normal woman
And your words are off by far

I am not perfect
I am not here to stay
I can't promise you my love
For any longer than today

You treat me like I am your dream girl
But maybe that is what I am to you
I'm real but what you see is a dream
You see a fantasy, not what's true

You try to make me feel great
But I hate what you say to me
You've done nothing wrong
Except you can't sit with reality

I'm not your dream girl
I have problems, a lot at that
You aren't just trying to flatter me either
I'm not this dream girl, I'll tell you flat

Don't treat me how I know I'm not
Compliments offend me alright
With insults you can't offend me
You could try all night

See, if someone says I'm better
Than who I truely am
If they find out I'm really not
I know that they'd just scram

But if someone thinks I'm less
Than what I really am
When they find I'm better
Nothing hits the fan

If someone loves me for more
Than what I am and have
Then I live below their standards
I make myself my own slave

But if someone loves me for less
Than what I am every day
I passed their standards
And they loved me anyway

So either leave me now
And get by yourself somehow
Or know me for me
And make reality what you see

Hmmm... how to phrase my response as a compliment without offending the author...

...very thought provoking.

Interesting poem.I like it.It truly expresses what you feel and it s modern (just like I like it)without silly metaphors(which sometimes can be interesting and make u really feel what s inside ones mind...that is if they are well constructed).A very original idea if you ask me.Although I m sure that there are many people out there with low self esteem like you,I like the fact that u ve put your feeling down on paper on this form.

Woah... You could become a poet and make your own book and I'll buy your book even if it costs a million US dollars!

That really is the reality of relationships sometimes.....
Quite sad how people work these days......
We are nothing but moral infants......
Anyways I must applaud you on how you put your feelings into your poems
Really nice
