Authenticity

 

I see you

 

Trying to be different

Trying to have different thoughts

Trying to have different talks

 

You go so far as to change the shoes on your feet to something unbearable

Hoping

It will change your walk

 

You learn the ways of a far off land

Not understanding

Or questioning

Your own

 

Joining the most minuscule group

Rejecting the masses

Without comprehension of

Fad

 

You enlighten yourself with

The way

And that is good

While blinding yourself to sense and reason

Basic fairness and equality that

Your way

Teaches

 

You say its

Devotion

 

I'm surprised

No one ever told you

There is nothing

Nothing

As unique

As you
