Embrace You

EMBRACE YOU
(written 10/23/09 3:27 pm)

You say "why'd i do or say that"
slapping your forehead
at your own perceived stupidy
when everyone else is playfully laughing

why are we so harsh on ourselves
we's not pretty enough
or smart enough
and etc...

why do we judge ourselves by society
when its not their opinion that matters
but the opinion of those who love you
We are blind to our talent potiental & beauty

some people try so hard to fit in to society
they percieve thier ideas or thoughs as abnormal
and cringe when they feel awkward for being different
we feel wrong when we contradict society.

why are we such fools to try to please a harsh society?
When did being unique or standing out become a bad thing?
What are we trying to be, robots?
Individuality should be embraced not rejected.

Why do your friends love you?
for the silly reliable fun YOU
Why does your family love you?
for the caring funny YOU
Why do you hate yourself?
your false perception of you
based on what society wants of you

Be you embrace you
be the you that family and friends love so much
embrace the you that you so falsly see
your not as stupid awkward or ugly as you think
but wonderful funny and beautiful

open you eyes- look at yourself clearly
stop changing for the world
Be yourself
do it for the those who really matter
if you can't do it for yourself

EMBRACE YOU
Who you really are
Embrace your individuality
it'll reveal who really matters
embrace those who accept YOU
