Over the purity of human nature So many categories So much insecurity Naked and alone The place of humans were The face of humans were Less stressed So many in-crowds So many outcasts It doesn't make sense I don't know why I care I'm a mere whisper Drowned by louder screams I don't really matter Compared to trends and fancies All too happy being ignorant Nothing comes from it Yet they say I'm the weirdo When I find reason So it's smart to act stupid now And finding reason means nothing Why do I bother Why do I care Why don't I let myself fall Why don't I crumble and give in Oh wait that's right I don't want to be society's statistic I don't want to be a percentage That an unknown face Plasters on the tv screen I don't want to follow followers I don't want to succumb To the stupidity around me I want to be myself I want to be someone I want to be me Even if I'm not apart Of the popular society Of the ignorant society Of the rich society Or the immoral society That's perfectly fine with me [comments] => 2 [counter] => 195 [topic] => 48 [informant] => InexactExactness [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )
