&quot;Everything is okay in the end,<br /> if its not okay it&#039;s not the end.&quot;<br /> &quot;Be who you are and say how you feel because if someone matters they dont mind and if someone minds they dont matter&quot;<br /> &quot;If God brings you to it he will bring you through it!&quot;

Hiding behind the words of others,
Too afraid to speak my own
Pulling me into the thoughts of others,
Misplacing them for my own.
Every doubt and voice inside my head
That wasn’t truly my own
Would hold me back from my dreams,
Keeping me from being me
Which is who I need to be.
