Acceptance

Acceptance can be your worst enemy,
Causing you to waste valuable time.
Creating this person that you really aren’t.
Expressions unreal 
Perpetuating a persona, 
Teetering on the edge of collapse.
Anticipating inclusion in the 
Non-existence of inclusivity.
Causing more and more anxiety.
Express who you are and be content.
