To Conform
By Soulseeker
The conviction to conform must be ceased,
so our binded souls can be released.
To even contradict ourselves with conformity,
is suicidal to do normally.
To relengish our true selves is the key,
and for us to be unafraid for the world to see.
This is me and I am my own,
I do not care if you like what I have shown.
But you should know,
before I go:
To be proportionate you have to speak,
and neglect to let the lie leak.
Erase all voices except the one that belongs to you,
and you too shall see your soul peek through.

A lot of people do make all of their decisions from their physical self, thinking throught the soul is the clearest path

This is something that so many people neglect to even comcider. now that so many people are raised on television and the popular media, their own voice is silenced before they learn to speak. Great write now i must go read more!
