Personal Inconsistencies
Consistency is key isn't it not?
Then why does it feel like a chore rather than a reward?
Nobody gives you a road map on life
So why are there so many pressures from wrong to right?
Inconsistency has been a part of my whole life
Whether I knew it or not
But that's the thing
Little girls and little boys are constantly told
How to act
How to be
How to become just the thing their parents need
But never how to be free
Free from limitations of themselves and this 'such cruel world' they're preached about
"This world is a dangerous place"
Then show me what to do
Instead of putting all these things in my head of what I should want to do
Show me how to be cautious but true to myself
Because you've never done that now
Oh I'm so sorry if this feels like too much to ask
But I'm tired of not knowing who I want to be, who I could be, who I will always be
The real me
Regardless of you or this world
I'm done
For the first time in my life, I want to be me
Eccentric, silly, fun-loving me
