For How Long?

By Siddhi Joshi

For how long will you hide your shine just because their eyes are too weak to stand it?

Let them know there are some who live for this shine to brighten their lives.

For how long will you keep belittling yourself just to fit perfectly in their ideal frame?

Let them broaden their horizon of what is ideal

For how long will you keep weighing yourself down?

Let them know your worth and shake them off balance.

Let them.

For you are much more than they can ever comprehend.
