Be Yourself

How easy to flee from self
rather than to be yourself.
why do we run for help
when it is near- looking within
this mirror I see someone so rear!

Many a child, youth, seeking to thrive
no truth of self derives, for
all are equal, all are born free
be yourself, my friend,your worthy!
There's no better way to be
