Courageously Me
I’m not one who likes to attract attention
I am the mind, the talent behind the action
But I refuse to conform, and that begets attention
Oh boy . . . Attention
I prefer to be me, uniquely so without the praise
But, in a society where so many conform
Trying to follow the mainstream
I’m that outlier that stands out
The bright yellow pea in a green pod
The yellow rose amid floral red
I’m proudly different
Daringly brave and making my own waves
I’m courageously me.
