Poetry Of A Borderline

dont change

In the mirror, you gaze with gentle eyes,
Seeking to hold onto your truest self,
Amidst a world of shifting compromise,
Where expectations linger and hearts delve.

You strive to keep the essence that's within,
Unyielding to the pressures that surround,
For in authenticity you find your kin,
And in your roots, your strength is found.

Though winds of change may blow with tempting might,
You stand firm, a beacon of steadfast grace,
Embracing all that makes your soul alight,
In every step, in every quiet space.

So hold onto the light that burns so bright,
Let it guide you through the shadows and the storm,
For in being true to you, in day or night,
You'll find your place, your purpose, and your form.
