Be Yourself

The rising sun,
                                               the falling stars.

                                    Should not define,
                                                       who we are.

                                    The things we wish for,
                                                       the dreams we dream.

                                     We only do,
                                             what we deem.

                                     We should not be influenced,
                                                                       by others choices.

                                      We can make decisions,
                                                         we should use our voices.

                                       Do not be afraid,
                                                  to stand up tall.

                                       You have unique qualities,
                                                                      love them all.
