Poem: Standing Up for Yourself

Standing up for yourself is not easy
But if you don’t do it
People will always walk over you
They will use you for their gain
In every way possible
Belittle you without consideration
For your feelings
And you will never be tough
In the eyes of others
But instead an ant among giants
Who can easily be squished and stomped on
And never be anything great
