Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim. Accept no one's definition of your life, but define yourself.
Harvey Fierstein
Just act natural
No need for
False pretenses
Fake smiles
Just doesn’t
Make sense.
Just act natural
Stand tall and
True.
You don’t have
To put on airs
Let your true
Self
Shine
Like the diamond
You are.
Don’t feel the
Need to be someone
You aren’t
To make others
Comfortable
When it costs
You,
Your own comfort.
Let your individuality
Shine bright
Proudly be the person
God made you
Just act natural
Let others love
You as you
Are.
