I've been trying
Trying trying
To become a better person
To do the things
I say I'm going to do
To do the things
That I think about
That I know I should do
Support the people
I should be supporting
Surround myself
With people that support me
I've been working towards
A better me
That helps people
The way I know I should
That organizes the community
That fights against bigotry
That tries to end oppression
That fights for the oppressed
Someone that thinks less
About themselves
And more about
Others
I've been trying so hard
For so many years
To be a better me
It's hard to be who you really are or who you really want to be. It's hard to be yourself when you're afraid of being judged. But the only way to know who the realy you is, is to be yourself - and more than that be a better version of yourself.
