Conformity by The Lost Girl

Hum a tune of joy,
Quote a line of sadness,
Express a thought of gratitude,
Suppress a hint of madness.

Sing a song of mercy,
Ask a human for love,
Delude a person’s mind,
Seek forgiveness up above.

Follow a conformer,
Be a political child,
Don’t stray from the world,
Live a life so mild.

Go against free thinking,
Do all that your told,
Make everyday the same,
Refuse to make it bold.

I’m tired of being like you,
I’m tired of this game,
I’m tired of conformity,
I’m tired of being the same.

Be your own person
Hey Girl! That's what I like! Be your own person. Sometimes we're gonna be isolated, especially when we don't follow Jane Doe over here and Bobby Lee over there. Wonderful poem!
