BE YOURSELF
Call it selfish if you must
But I believe every choice must bring you closer to yourself
If it only strains you, and brings you no laughter
It is not who you are, it is not how you should be walking
If it alters your voice and weakens your posture
It is not who you are, it is not how you should be walking
If you must squint your eyes and scrap the depths of you mind
To meet the minds of those unlike your own
Know that it is not who you are, it is not how you should be walking
In all my accounts of love and rejection
I have learnt that it is better to—
Be yourself, and don’t apologize.
Mostly because,
you really have no choice in the matter.
You are going to do it anyways
and if it’s not on purpose
it will be by mistake.
Such a shame
to make yourself a mistake.
And when you apologize for it
you will always apologize
because you will always do it.
And it will be so sad
and so boring
And nobody will care,
it would be all for nothing.
And worse it will be all your fault.
You’ll blame yourself for being yourself,
and hate yourself because you can’t help it.
It is who you are.
It is.
