NOT

You are not your age

Nor the size of clothes you wear,

You are not a weight

Nor the color of your hair,

You are not your name

Nor the dimples in your cheeks,

You are all the books you read

And all the words you speak,

You are your croaky morning voice

And the smiles you try to hide,

You are the sweetness in your laughter

And every year you've cried,

You are the songs u sing so loudly

When you know u r all alone,

You are the places that you've been to

And the one that you call home,

You are the things that you believe in,

And the people that you love,

You are the photos in your bedroom

And the future you dream of,

You are made of so much beauty

But it seems that u forgot,

When you decided that you were defined

By all the things you are not.
