It's time
Time to let go
Time to be free
Time to be myself
Time to be me

It's time
Time to stop caring about what others think
Time to do what I want
Time to create my own art
Time to show my true self

It's time
Time to start sticking up for myself
Time to stop letting others tease me
Time to start fight for myself
Time to stand proud and tall

It"s time
Time for me to let go
Time to do what I want
Time to start fighting for myself
It's finally time

Hey there! I love the title! I love how much you use the word time, it really emphasizes the point. Sometimes the continuation of word use is very over-done in others work, but I thought this just worked how it was set-up.. bravo. And the rhymes in the beginning are really good! The second stanza would have to be my favorite! It's really time for EVERYONE to do those things, isn't it? The point in this poem are great about the things you're going to start doing for not anyone else, but for yourself! Great job!
