![]() SomeoneA Poem by Mackenzie Knitter![]() This is me taking the advice people have told me after graduation and creating an actual sense of empowerment that the people of this generation can utilize.![]()
Be something.
Be someone. Change the world. Change yourself. Do your best. Do better. Leave your mark. Don't leave a scar. Be successful. Don't be anything less. Be unique. Be professional. Contradicting words, cancelling each other out in order to fit into the category 'supportive'. A dash of false encouragement, to build up a sense of empowerment, Followed by a comment to shave off individuality, disable the mind. There's no room for error, this small window starves creativity. No more. I will change the world, By being myself and myself alone. I will do my best, By always pushing the boundaries. I will leave my mark, By embracing my scars. I will be successful, Because I am not afraid to fail. I am unique, I'm an individual, not a robot. I am something. I am someone.
