Can't seem to hold it in
Don't want to hide it anymore
Have to let it show
Let them all know
What's in my heart

I don't care what they think
Don't want to be caught in the drama
Can't let the chaos get the best of me
Must take a hold of my life

Don't want to be caged up
While the world passes by
Like the majestic dragonfly
It's time I open the door

With my own strength
To unlock the lock
Setting me free to take flight
To go off to find my happiness

If the world finds me strange
I'll take is as a compliment
Your words just make me strong
You'll never chip my soul

Don't tell me what path to take
Only I choose my own road
Obstacles that come my way
I have to learn to overcome

Mistakes can be corrected
Seeking answers to questions
A Person must grow on their own
Facing their own battles
That people don't understand

Can't let the chains of oppression
Bring me down in depression
Only I can break free of the constraints
If I wish to embrace my destiny

Let the world deal with their issues
I won't let the dissonance get me
Have to focus on the task at hand
Embracing my dreams by letting go

This poem was inspired by Disney's Frozen's Let It Go.

In today's world were afraid to show ourselves as we are because people find us different or strange. Sometimes they even underestimate us at times and don't believe in us thinking were not strong enough to do things on our own. But their wrong-we have the capacity and power within us all to follow our dreams no matter what the challenges that come our way. Even when were sad or feel like we can't get far due to the dissonance around us-We have to learn to embrace and let it go to pursue our own happiness and be who we we are.

But even on our own-we have people and friends that support us and accept us for who we are-even when we are at our worst they stay by our side to help us get back up.
