PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I'm inspired to think...

OH NO!

Shall someone find out,

I'll be shoved into conformity's closet.

Shall I stand anyway?

Shall I speak up and shout?



YES!



I'm a slave to society.

Dammit!

I want my life back...

My freedom!



No more papers to carry.

No more contemplating my position.

No more blonde hair,

Blue eyes or

Anorexic body.

No more tan complexion...



I'm not a source of your perfection!



Don't do this and this.

But do this and this.



Ruled by society's regulations.

Tired of being just another face in the crowd.

I'm a rebel!

ROAR!

A radical independent that is taking back what's hers.

I'll scream and I'll fight!

By God, I'll make everything alright!



Wishful thinking... such bravery.

This is how the world works...

Slaves to society, we all are!

One person can only change so much,

But if you learn to follow...

This world we know can do the unthinkable.

It can change.



So, I'll sit back down and wait.

Wait for that person inside to take the stand.

For real this time...

Fear of conformity is my complex.

If I fight it though, will I just fade away?

Or will the history books remember my name?

I don't want the glory,

Just the heart and the spirit

To know that what I did made a difference.

Even if that difference was only for one person,

It would all be worth it.



Conform to society...

How overrated is that?
