Don't Change For Anyone Poem by Tina Baaklini

Don't change for anyone
Don't put a mask for anyone
Show self-respect
Not out of arrogance but
Rather self-confidence

How beautiful you are
When you hold on to your soul
To your unique soul

Your soul holds your unique
Imprint in the world
Be as you are and love who you are

Not all people have to like you
As you don't like all people
You weren't born to entertain
Others anyway

As long as your conscience is clear
Never betray yourself by changing
To get validation or approval from anyone
