Be Yourself

Be Yourself

A Poem by Dominique Lambright
"

Never try to change for anyone

"

Be Yourself

 

Changing personalities

Every new person you meet

Comes with a new attitude

Proper or ghetto

Whichever you feel is appropriate

At the time

Kind of crazy

Unexplainable

Does not make sense

Telling all these stories

Most people believe

But I know the truth

I catch the lies

The stories change

And then it’s hard to know

What the truth is

Then I wonder

Exaggeration

And trying to fit in

It’s not necessary

But I guess you don’t understand yet

You don’t need to compare your life

Or be better than anyone else

Be yourself

Don’t change for anyone
