Please Be You
Please be you.
Even if you’re loud,
Or quiet.
Your voice is the only voice you have.
Use it.
Speak up,
Speak out.
Don’t be silent.
Tell the world your story.
Please be you.
Even if you feel too big,
Or too small,
Stand tall.
Take up space.
This is your place,
And your time,
By design,
There’s only one you in this moment.
Embrace it.
Please be you.
Even if you feel too young,
Or too old.
Every roll,
Every wrinkle,
Proves you’re human,
And you’re survived,
Now just thrive,
Knowing how strong you’ve become.
Please be you.
