Ever since I’ve been questioning:
In whatever we do,
aren’t we killing our innocence as we continue to grow,
aren’t we fooling ourselves
when the societal norms
continue to impact us negatively ?
Doubting ourselves,
Constantly fearing rejection,
Unable to achieve perfection and excellence,
Afraid to share, speak, explain, cry,
Because they taught us that way.
Aren’t we all constantly hunting stability,
when we barely know the purpose of it.
Aren’t we fighting and conflicting on the inside,
fulfilling influential expectations.
How easy it is,
to say
that everything is unconvincing,
when we don’t even think beyond.
Let’s stop receiving and sending these norms.
We’re battling to be better versions of ourselves,
with different perspectives,
different lives altogether.
