No, I will not be diminished
By your dismissal of me.

No, I will not disappear
Just because you refuse to notice me.

No, I will not conform;
I will not yield to your violence.

No, I will not further your agenda
While I secretly resist it.

No, I will not agree with you;
I will not prove you right about my adaptability

No, I will not be
Who you would like me to be.

My existence will not be exploited
By your machinations and for your ambitions.

No.
