Be yourself

Haven't you ever wondered
How life would be?
If you could live it
Just the way you dreamed?

Haven't you ever questioned
Why you should follow
The same old path
Whether it brings joy or sorrow?

Haven't you ever realised,
That never once,
Have you strayed away,
From under the sun?

Don't you see in your mirror,
That you have become,
More or less,
Like everyone?

Get out of your shell,
And step onto the stage,
To be what to have to be,
Don't lock yourself up in a cage.

Don't lose yourself,
In the world of all war,
For you have all the time,
Just to be a shining star.

This may not be the best poem,
But what it says is true,
Be yourself,
Let that unique self be the real YOU.
