Please
September 21, 2013
Please
Show me who you are
As you are
And not who
The others want you to be
Please
Tell me honestly
What I mean to you
Without the others
Telling you what to say
Please
Don’t lie
To yourself
Or to me
Because you might forget
Please
Don’t leave behind
Who you are
Just because the others
Don’t think you’re good enough.
