STRAYED SHEEP

STRAYED SHEEP Today, we are all as strayed sheep Once together, and of one mind All have wandered and separated Finding independence is overrated Common values become conflated To such a life, many are resigned With different memories to keep What is family, it’s a difficult question All spread across the world we know Linked merely by digital conversation Different definition of a close relation Who is really part of a congregation Lifetime bonds are at an all time low Popular activities the main congestion Some may still remember the flock A safety in numbers, a common goal Yet by many, now often seen as quaint Comfortable memories becoming faint For some, group identity is a constraint Over time, disassociation takes its toll And finding oneself alone is a shock
