Lost in a room
Both white and pure
Windows cover every part.

So many choices
Only one I must choose
This one or that one
They all look the same.

That one is small though
But could it be the right one
Or is it?

As I look inside
I see me
Or at least I think so
It looks like me.

But as I look deeper
I see a new me
I close my eyes
And pretend its not real.

I then awake
And discover that I
Am who I choose to be
And I should never change.

The author's comments:
I wrote because I feel that sometimes we worry to much about or self-esteem, and fall into peer pressure only to find that the best of people should never need to change.
