Be true to yourself…
When you are honest with yourself
You can see how you really are inside
And just what it is others will see about you
If given the chance to really know you
What you show them is what they base
Their opinions of you on
Friendships can be built upon this
Emotions will form and only if you are honest
Will they be worth something to you
Or to the people you have allowed in
Don’t be ashamed of who you are inside
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder
What you see isn’t necessarily what
Anyone else will see about you
True happiness will only come from within
And that is easiest to achieve with honesty
Know that if someone tells you
They love you, they most likely do.
Embrace it or push it away, the choice
Is for you and you alone to make
No one else can make these choices for you
Be true to yourself and never lose
Sight of what is most important to you
May you always find contentment in life.
