Do It Your Way

If I'm not normal should I conform and seek to perform as all do or should I reach to perfect my form and be how I was born true There's safety in numbers but this one wonders if one mind wanders walks afar in sunder while others slumber standing to ponder previous blunders could the one that wanders understand wonders give back to numbers who will then wander beyond to yonder as those once stunners become common runners out of the box thinking stuns some numb, it's a heavy weight knockout they come undone for others to have thoughts you wrestle is fun a combination they shuffle like a champion commoners thoughts pace up and down the same sites with the same sounds facing lows and heights on the same grounds hoping to sight delights unfound but it's not how I do as I venture out on random paths the way untraveled collect clues bits quarters make halves with half an idea plough through though told it's daft until I announce I've something new which stops laughs so should I conform against my nature work to reform and advance my stature live untrue to me as though an actor allow only unnatural attributes to factor why misplace and waste so it's untraced and put in its place the common taste when I could embrace what can't be replaced and chase it and ace with my victory face POTD 9/7/2019

Good Morning Honorable Winner of the POTD! Big congratulations from Panagiota Romios! " To thine own self be true, and it follows, as day follows night, that thou canst not be false to any man." I share your feelings and it's in many of my poems. I understand the crowd going the other way! The whole world pushes us to get along, even where the sheep are going off a cliff. You can't escape being you! Just be you. Panagiota Well written and rhymed.
