The Future of my life
is a world away.
People looking at me
say I can be better,
but I don’t care.

The Future of my life
is a world away.
I don’t care what people
say. I won’t change for people,
for others or for the world.

The Future of my life
is a world away.
I’ll change if I want to,
for myself. I won’t let the
world change me.

The Future of my life
is a world away.
I am unique, just different
cause we all are. Don’t
let others change you.
You’re Unique

© Norma S., El Paso, TX

The author's comments:
This piece was inspired by the will for people to bully others. Everybody is unique. Don't let people change you. You have the power to change your life not the world around you.
