I Love Being Tall

At 5'11 I stand taller than most

Which leaves an ample amount of reason to boast

When I walk into a room, people stop and stare

But not just at my bright smile or pretty hair

Sometimes I'm amazed at the attention I get

While riding in cars or standing in crowds I see easily without breaking a sweat

In the past I was one of the tallest in school

I wasn't comfortable until I realized tall people rule

I love my height more than anything else

It empowers me, guides and allows me to be myself

Even if I had the choice I wouldn't want to be short

Because tallness brings confidence which is now my best sport

When I look at myself I can't help but be pleased

I make an impression and glide through the crowds with ease

My height helps me through all kinds of weather

It's the glue for my self-assurance that keeps it all together

I never knew being tall was such a treat

Until I come face to face with the people I meet

I love being tall, turning the world onto myself

For if I wasn't tall, I might as well be someone else


Just a little something I made up on the spur of the moment. Everyone should take the time to appreciate something that makes you special. Most of us drown ourselves in so much negativity it's good to be positive about who we are. So remember what makes you special and pick a moment to fully appreciate that.
