Taboo

In life so much is such a taboo,
too many things you ought not to do.
Do them anyway, just for the thrill,
right from the heart,
your soul,
your will.
People may gasp,disgust, dismay.
That'll just increase the secrets we play.
Wont be told what's right or wrong,
the world's just singing to a different song.
So, lay down the law, judge, criticise,
with your narrow minds and tiny eyes.
I wont abide by your restricting law,
I'll live my life, 'till there is no more

if you live your life alone, be free and break a leg, if there is someone in your life, won't you try to be safe for him? sorry it came from my heart, thank you for this wild poem.
