Note to Self

Note to self:
you're going to be okay.
Grow into the skin your were born in,
and fill the gaps where others have stretched it out.
Just because you are worn thin,
doesn't mean you're made of paper.
They will try to make you feel pliable,
but stay true to the form you've created
for yourself.
I know you have your bad days,
where you remember learned behaviours,
but don't forget to learn something of your own
to replace their suffocating lessons.
