Society Unmasked
How boring it would be
To live in a society
Where people are afraid to be who they want to be.
Like sheep, they are herded into one category,
Following the first trend they see.
Afraid of showing their true identity,
They hide behind their insecurities
Until the mask begins to crumble.
When will they see
That they don’t need to blend in with society?
The opinions of others shouldn’t dictate the clothes they wear
Or the music they listen to.
Stay true to oneself
Embrace weirdness
Let freak flags fly
Because in the end,
One’s opinion of oneself is all that qualifies.
