Standards of Fitting In


Stand up straight, 

shoulders back, 

you're doing great!

Just don' let it break!

 

Oh! Eye contact... 

Ok, now smile and wave.

Please don't over act,

and just be brave

 

Your like a welcome mat;

everyone stepping all over you,

in constant combat.

Never feeling free.

 

Always wearing a mask,

fake it all the way.

A never-ending task,

Just breath, it's okay.
