What Makes You, You?


What Makes You, You?

By Destiny Parker

 

You are who you make yourself out to be,

The way you dress, the way you walk, even talk,

How and what you stand up for, no matter who you are with.

Making yourself you?

You stand up for what's right, no matter the cost.

Hold yourself up for what's right, helping others.

Making you, you?

Be who you are, do what you like, 

But, never settle for less.
