Society Ties

i don't sit in line with society's eyes
i don't fake like fools with books of lie 
i don't commit image of suits and ties
i escaped the boundaries and live outside 

expectations are prison walls
capturing individuals 
predictable to fit in with all 
how are you not miserable 

i don't care what strangers think
reputations are for those unknown
cliched isms selectively link
persons made a slander clone 

I will walk the way i walk
be talked about as good and fault
and in random minds ideas get caught
won't bother me as they aint my thoughts

I like your declaration of distancing yourself from the ideas and opinions of others. An admirable poem.
