People are always going to tell you
Who to be and who you are
It's your job to say
This is me
Draw if you want to draw
Write if you want to write
Eat foods you want to eat
And do what you want to do.
Society has images
That we are all supposed to conform to
Be who you want to be
And not what other people tell you to be.
Just because you like
Something that no one else does
Doesn't mean
That you are any less of a person
Everyone is strange in their own way
And it will always be your job
To be who you want
And to do what you want.
Who to be and who you are
It's your job to say
This is me
Draw if you want to draw
Write if you want to write
Eat foods you want to eat
And do what you want to do.
Society has images
That we are all supposed to conform to
Be who you want to be
And not what other people tell you to be.
Just because you like
Something that no one else does
Doesn't mean
That you are any less of a person
Everyone is strange in their own way
And it will always be your job
To be who you want
And to do what you want.

Overall Vision Originality Technique ImpactBeautiful piece.
This addresses a lot of issues young people, like me, have with views in society these days with the need to meet the demand to be perfect and to be just like everyone else, and its not getting any easier as time goes by. You've brought these to life in an amazing poem that has been beautifully executed with a positive message to be who you truly are, I'm sure that it adheres to all in some way or another.
The message "Be who you are" is a strong one and you haven't let it falter in the least.
