Don't tell me who I am
Or who I'm supposed to be
Because I am strong
Because I am beautiful
In every way
Don't tell me I need to stop frowning
Or why I should pretend I'm happy
Because I have the right to emotions
Because I have the right for what I need to feel
Each and every day
Don't tell me to stop living my life
Or to stop the things I love and do
Because I am me
Because I am not a reflection of you
You don't control me
Don't just tell me I need to share
To love
To smile
Because I'll only do it
If you show me first
I am independent
I am strong
I am flawless yet imperfect
I am me.
