Who I'm Not

I'm not Sara, I only wanted what I thought was best for you.
I'm not Griselda, she's your wife.
I'm not your ex girlfriend, she couldn't see you.
I'm not your personal secretary.
I'm not your booty call.
I'm not your whipping boy.
I'm not your ace in the hole.
I'm not sitting around waiting for any one's call.
I'm not easy.
I'm not willing to be controlled.
I'm not going to start using the "F" word.
I'm not going to start using the "C" word.
I'm not going to start appreciating anyone using the "F" or "C" word.
I'm not going to get lower than a C in Geology.

You're not my father, you cannot reprimand me.
You're not my boss, you cannot belittle me.
You're not my God, you cannot judge me.

You are my friend, so be friendly.
