To Each Their Own

By SilencedAngel

To each their own
When it comes to fighting for survival
You have to learn to breath your own way
To think for yourself once again

To each their own
To be alone with yourself
And all of what you are thinking and feeling
Even when you should surround yourself with everyone who cares about you

To each their own
Why must you push me to be
Something that I am not ready to be right now

To each their own
Why won't you let me do this my way
Why must you force me to be cheerful when I don't feel that way
Let me do this my way before you push me even farther into my pit of depression

To each their own
Learn it
Live it
Or leave me be

    Truly great work. Being original is too hard for the masses. Not many individuals left in this world and is so easy just gotta look on the inside.
