This Life Of Mine Poem by Melissa Koeman

I want an own opinion
A mind of my own
I want to express my feelings and thoughts
And not repressing myself anymore
I don’t want to be insecure anymore
I want to be strong
I want to be selfish and not excuse myself for saying: “no”
I want to live for myself and not for others anymore
Because I’m the only one who is living this life
So why shouldn’t I be happy if I can
After all:
I’m the only one who can make this life of mine work!
