Look around,
At life all around,
People complaining,
People following,
Doing what they will,
People acting without thinking,
Quickly sinking into the world.

To live in a world,
Where people depend on others,
For their ideas,
Of not only what they wear,
But who they are,
This is a truly a scar,
On the face of truth,
And of freedom.

Some people are mindless,
Letting other choose for them,
What they think of this or that,
They get so sucked in,
There’s no coming back.

I have thoughts others don’t see,
I have emotions others don’t feel,
I see the sky and become enamored,
While others see it and are indifferent,
Humanity is fighting against itself,
We strive to be normal,
When normal is different.

So look around,
Where do you fall,
Are you in the normal,
Or in the different?

« return.
