You see,
What does it mean to 'be yourself'?
I wonder,
'Set yourself apart from the others'
'Unleash your true colours'
'Be confident! love yourself for who you are'
Is what I've heard.
You see,
What does it really mean to 'be yourself'?
I wonder,
A conformist is what I've become,
Bound by the wall of mediocrity,
And then it struck,
When? Where? Why?
What exactly happened along the way?
You see,
When I was a kid,
I dream a lot,
The things I hate,
The things I love,
Clear as a day,
Showing it, is what I did,
Free as the wind,
I am,
Again,
What happened?
Life happened,
Is that it?
Do we not change?
Can we even change?
You see,
As we grow older,
Our dream,
The things we love,
The things we hate,
Changes,
And so do we,
So,
Embrace it,
Better late than never,
To start,
Being yourself.
