Blend in and go with the flowA Poem by AnataWhen your secret becomes your lifeSitting in your bed In the middle of the night Wondering where it went wrong Imagining how it could have been Your mind tricks you Making the bad look worse And the unknown better The grass appears greener on the other side Going over various outcomes One even better than the other You don’t stop to take in count Controlling your mind is out of reach Born in a world where better is good Distinction is needed to be Without it you’re just another leaf on the tree You need to differ in order to stand out Where no guidelines are given And no goals are set It is easy to loose your way To stand out no matter what Except you are not allowed to You need to watch your steps Whether you want to or not You have to calculate your every move Where one wants to stand out You have to blend in Go with the flow, as if nothing is wrong Pretending your life is normal Because if anyone knew how special you are You would be judged Separated and disposed For the one thing that makes you You are infected Yet not contagious But fear spreads like a fire And people judge by the heat You have to blend in Go with the flow Sitting on your bed With a baggage, you have to carry your own.
