Identity: Lack Thereof
Everyone wants to be
Like everyone else
Concerned only with others
And not with yourself
Your brain becomes poor
Where there could potentially be
An abundance of mental wealth
Take a minute and
THINK
How many of your choices are yours, alone?
Society encourages conformity
Which can only make you a clone
Thus stripping your identity
With promises
Of never being alone
You don’t understand
That they influence you so much
They can force your hand
And you let them.
You wish to run with the crowd
And leave all your doubts
Yet in the midst of it all
Your voice runs out
However your doubts were doubts
For a reason
The crowd can be so misleading
As you discard your morals and hopes
Your soul dies of Treason
