Solve for X

Call me Xas if I am the unknown variable that you are trying to get to know but just don't know how toCall me Irrational. because you can never put me in a fraction and reduce me to lower terms because forever I go.Call me an expressionbecause I can never be equal to the girl I use to be, to the girl who thought she was ugly, just Call me ALGEBRA Trying to find whats not given and they tell me that being light skin is the best completion, so that's probably the reason why my reflection was rejecting, meShe didn't like what she see, so when I went to visit her, she said please leave, so Call me an integerbecause I contain many negative and positive thoughts in mind about my features so now I become order of operationsSo I add the weave to my hair to make it long and straight and I subtract the love and multiple the hateNow divide what is real from what is fake and tell me who am I really? Just call me a polynomial because I have went through many terms in my life to find what was missing, all this time I was not listening.My refection wanted to tell me something all along, but I pushed her away because I thought she was wrong, but on this day she wanted to tell me that I am beautiful.  So now I can call myself an equation because I have the same amount of love and confidence for myself on both sides.I just Solved for X
