Conform

You throw these words straight at me

it seems like you take aim

but in the end all you can say

is that it's me to blame.



Why should I defend myself

to someone who's never wrong

I stand corrected every time

and just get pulled along.



I live my life in my own way

you want lived in yours

why do I bother being here

what am I trying for.



I'm always wrong, your never right

we're made from different molds

while all this time i'm looking

for one string on which to hold.



Why can't you see we're different

our views never the same

can not conform to your beliefs

my feelings won't be tamed.

"So the life I have made
May seem wrong to you
But, Ive never been surer
Its my life to ruin
My own way"

A pleasure to read, as always. Very strong poem!
