We are not paper dollsWe are notOne-size-fits-all

We are uniqueWe are flawedWe are beautiful

We are human

We are not cookie-cutter cut outsAll smooth edges and perfect linesWe are not identical,carbon copiesall produced on an assembly line

We are square pegsin round holesWe are dissonant chords

And if we all sangthe same songWe'd be bored before too long

We are harmonyWe are colours of the spectrumWe are prisms of lightWe are scarsWe are battles thatwe've lostand wars we ragesilently inside

We are loudWe scream outWe are not paper dollsWe are collectionsof our fears, of our strengthsof our bravery and our tears

We are not perfectand that's exactly what makes usPerfect.

We are proudWe are enoughWe are worth it

we are worth itwe are worth itwe are humanwe are worth it
