To Be Or Not To Be
To be or not to be,
Is it enough for me to be me?
What does society want me to be?
No! They say, that's not the way to be,
Be normal for it is the best way to be,
Accept the social norms for it should shape me,
This however does not make me feel free,
Free from what they think i ought to be,
Hence I choose freedom, i choose to be me.
