Who were you

Before the world told you how to dress

Dictating the length of your skirts

Or the piercings you wear on your ear

Who were you

Before a friend told you were too fat

While you're in your favorite pants

Wearing all the confidence you have

Who were you

Before social media asked for too much

Demanded fleeky brows and nice busts

In exchange of favorable comments

You have complied enough

To this society's problematic standards

Maybe it's time to finally ask yourself,

"Who am I?"

Thank you for asking us the simple question "Who am I". It might sound simple, but within the world we're living right now, It's really hard to answer that question--That's why, thank you for remindering us to be ourselves and not to be what others dictate us to be.🖤
