Being You

It's yourself you deny By portraying a lie If you fake your way Through life each day Your spirit, your soul Will reach a black hole That's when you'll know How the power to grow Is to trust your worth Right from birth Because being true Is being you. by Ana Espinola Collins

Ana So much truth in this write. We should always be who we are and never change just to please someone. Thank you for the wonderful comment on my Nature poem.

Hi Ana. You managed to say a lot here in just a few well-chosen words. This is a theme I think about often. Leaves a guy with a lot to think about. Great write, my friend. :) Mel
