#BeYourself

A Poem by Francis Orion

You think
The danger of living a lie
Is that you'll get caught
But the true peril
Is you may lose yourself
Somewhere in between

This poem speaks strongly to me right now. Lately I have been caught between wanting to be myself and wanting to be what everyone else wants me to be. It is exhausting being what everyone wants you to be. And now I have no friends because I have finally decided that it is time to stop stressing myself out by not living up to their expectations. Thank you for writing what was on my mind haha. Great piece.
