Look at me

I know her family isn't perfect, but just once I want my parents to look at me like that, so I can ignore them like that. I want them to look over and be proud of how I'm doing, so much that they can't find words for it. And not think that it's because of them, but just because of who I am. On my own. I want them to want me to be great. Instead of constantly asking me to settle, assuming the lowest of me. I want to be looked at like that.
