Individual

Individual

A Poem by Tory Steller
"

For anyone who thinks for themselves.

"
The masses disagree with me, but I’m an individual
My decisions aren’t dictated by a hive-minded yes or no

I disregard what’s deemed acceptable and speak my peace
Regardless if forever I alone hold dear my own beliefs

It may not be as comfortable as being labeled normal
But I still reject conformity in favor of my morals

I’m more than just a rebel seeking rules to disobey
I just like to use my brain so I’m not led astray

It’s fine to me if we agree, if our visions coincide
Just don’t expect forfeited pride to blindly take your side

We are all original and entitled to opinions
Just think! Don’t let society enslave you as its minion

Author's Note

Tory Steller
This was inspired by a a little argument I had with a group of people that ended up shunning me, so I wrote this to comfort myself.
