By Colten Ellis

Everyone is their own person
No matter what you may think
You need to see them for
Who they are and not what
They look like on the outside
Don't worry about their origins
Don't worry about their family
Worry about what they do
Worry about what they say
Bleaching your own skin
Darkening yourself with drugs
Changing your hair just to
Get along with your friends
Trying to change your personality
Just to make someone accept
You for who you aren't
Don't let yourself conform
Don't be who you're not
Let your colors show
Let your personality grow
Into who you want to be
Don't let the people
Push you to being different
Be what and who you want
To be in life without a care
Because you are perfect
Just the way you are
