Best Socialchange Poems


Be Yourself

Zelda is who I'll always be
No one can change me
Not even in an eternity.

I'll always be myself,
There's nothing you can do,
I'm going to be me,
And I'll let you be you.

You call flaws,
I call quirks,
They are not annoying,
They are perks!

I'm not going to change,
So deal with it,
You can't change me,
But don't throw a fit.

No one is perfect,
Everyone's perfectly imperfect,
Don't let people's advice
Contradict.

You will always be you,
He will always be he,
That dog will always be that dog,
And I will always be me!

Me

The form you see
the eyes, the nose, the breast, the teeth
may not be what you like
eyes too dark, nose too big, breast not perky, teeth not white
the form you see is it me
is there not more to me
than just the form you see
maybe that is all of me
just the form that you see
why try to change keep changing
the form that you see
bigger breast, whiter teeth, slender figure
if there was more to me
than why oh why try to change the form you see?
