in this world, becoming
a copy of a copy of a copy
can be at times inevitable
so it won't be surprising
when everyone looks
and speaks the same
sings the same songs
dances to the same tones
because we become scared
to show who we are
succumbing to thoughts
and incorrect assumptions
conforming to worldly opinions
of dominating ideas
of should's and should not
but none contains
the contents of one's heart
but dear, listen
to your own inner voice
you'll see that there's
a thousand paths
a thousand ways to take
and none has to be
the same with someone else
but- are you,
courageous enough
to listen to your intiution
have the boldness
to pursue whatever it dictates
leave somebody's shadow
give rise to your
divine individuality
march against the crowd outside
that are mere ghosts
that haunts your mind
my dear, the world outside
is dead
without your animating power
so breathe
and from within hear
the petals of a blossoming
flower
for perhaps,
one of the greatest horrors
of this world
is actually ending up
a copy of your previous self.
