Untitled


It doesn't matter what you do,

As long as you stay true to you.

Stop living your life for another,

Not your sister, brother, mother, or father.

It took a while for me to learn,

What it means to true yearn.

Yearn for something important and new,

Yearn for me and not for you.

So I write this poem to remind myself,

What it means to be true to myself.
