On Individuality

I could revel in your stares 

Or find pleasure in your glares

But it seems to make me tired

I could try to live the way

Of the paths already paved

But it makes me miserable

Because I cannot stand

That I can't hear who I am

Between the scriptures and the words

That a million ears have heard

I'm not saying that they're wrong

But enveloped in the throng

How can I say no?

Fight the system, protect the people 

Don't matter what you do

Just remember to question every word

That will be given to you.

I believe in questioning things, definitely. Not everyone knows, wants or even really cares what is best for other people. It's a fine line though bc you can miss out on an awful lot if you aren't careful. I hear what your saying loud and clear. Excellent piece!

A guided piece that leads one to think of those things that stop us as people growing, well done, good read.
